Here are a few photos from Le temps du rêve. Performed at ARPRIM in the Belgo building for Nuit Blanche - Montreal, 2012.

Dans le cadre de Nuit blanche à Montréal, ARPRIM invite les noctambules de tous âges à pénétrer dans une forêt enchantée habitée de créatures mystérieuses. Alliant le théâtre d’ombres et de marionnettes, Arthur Desmarteaux et Allison Moore (Egotrip Production) présentent Le temps du rêve, un spectacle immersif et surréaliste inspiré du paysage australien.

Trois représentations sont prévues à 20h, 22h et minuit. Il sera aussi possible de visiter la scène avant et après les représentations. Les places sont limitées : premiers arrivés, premiers servis. Durée : 45 minutes

Project developed in residence at Megalo Print Studios, Canberra Australia [October-December 2011]

Micropolis 2.0 - Open Studio Toronto

Micropolis 2.0 - Allison Moore & Arthur Desmarteaux.

Here is a little video documentation of an installation at Open Studio in Toronto. The exhibition is up from January 12 - February 18, 2012. Micropolis is an ever-expanding installation comprised of collaged screen and digital prints, assembled so they evoke a busy modern commercial street with pedestrians, creatures and vehicles passing by. The installation has an anthropological character inspired by the cityscapes of Québec City, Montréal and Toronto. A modular diorama of cardboard figures and shapes placed at different levels on wooden shelves, covering the perimeter of the gallery walls.
Printed by Allison Moore and Arthur Desmarteaux at Graff Print Studios [montreal], Open Studio [Toronto], and Engramme [Quebec City].
