This year, Artch was pleased ta welcome 𝕋𝕒𝕟𝕚𝕒 𝕃𝕒𝕣𝕒 ℂ𝕒𝕤𝕒𝕦𝕓𝕠𝕟 to its team for a period of six months. During this time, Tania was in charge of programming and cultural mediation. She also did a one-month paid residency, during which she was able ta devote herself entirely ta creating. Knowing that artists are often underpaid for their work, it is a priority for Artch ta support and encourage their versatility by offering hybrid opportunities that highlight their multiple skills.

Tania Lara Casaubon is a multidisciplinary artist, textile artisan and counter-cartographer. The dialogue that takes place between these different creative spaces allows her to address questions related to space and to how it is perceived, constructed and inhabited, as well as to the relationship that is constantly threaded and unraveled between place and identity. Sometimes in collaboration, sometimes in autogeography, she is interested in playing with the dimensions of multiplicity and simultaneity that characterize space, and in highlighting the individual and collective power of transformation that we carry towards our own territories, whether they be physical or virtual, emotional or corporeal, lived or imagined. Her interest in textile work and participatory art has led her to build various projects in Quebec, Colombia and Mexico, using counter-mapping to make spatial representation more permeable to the spaces, ideas and communities she works with. After completing a BFA at Concordia University, she is currently pursuing a master’s degree in research-creation in visual and media arts at UQAM.

What if we turned all of our stories into geographical maps? Through her textile and counter-mapping practice, 𝕋𝕒𝕟𝕚𝕒 𝕃𝕒𝕣𝕒 ℂ𝕒𝕤𝕒𝕦𝕓𝕠𝕟 invites you to revisit places that are significant to you and to anchor them through embroidery in a large collective map. While covering the basis of embroidery stitches, this workshop seeks to create moments of encounter and sharing around the possibility of a common place. Open to all levels!
