Frédéric Chalté – (tri)Cycle 2024-2025
Vjosana Shkurti – (tri)Cycle 2023-2024
Vjosana Shkurti is a Montreal-based filmmaker. Born in Albania and raised in Greece, her artistic work explores questions of origin, memory and the human relationship with technology. Her training in architectural design informs her approach to perspective, framing and scale. She creates experimental films that blend abstraction and reality, fiction and documentary, the human body with its technological counterparts. She focuses on the camera and its performative potential as an active participant/character in cinema. She actively engages in the sound design of her pieces to modify the experience.
Juan-Sébastien Hernandez-Francoeur – (tri)Cycle 2023-2024
Juan is a self-taught writer-director from Quebec and the Dominican Republic. He perfected his cinematographic technique while working on some of his own short films. Juan wants to tell stories that mix genres and feature characters who have to face imaginary, comic, internal or societal fears. He has just completed his most personal short: Platanero.
