Join us on Thursday, January 20th, from 3:30-5:00 pm for the Creative Science Shop on Physical Health: Challenges and Tools.
Join us for an online discussion on the topic of physical health and challenges, introduced by Boutaine Chafi and Debbie Byer.
Boutaina, a 4th year Concordia student in Behavioural Neurosciences, will present a video conceived with her colleagues during Professor Karen Li’s course.
Debbie Byer, engAGE Living Lab community member, will share her perspective on staying active with physical challenges.
We are looking forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas, in a community discussion on physical changes and how we can benefit from the tools in our environment to maintain a healthy body.
The Creative Science Shop is a community round table, both online and in-person at the Cavendish Mall. It is an exchange of ideas, innovations, scientific and artistic projects. This intergenerational group brings together passion in the arts and sciences from older adults, students, and researchers.

“Art was the link between everything. It was very important to me during the pandemic because everything stopped at once, but the Hive came to us at home,” Desmarteaux.

Rayonnants de sérénité? Quand la douleur nous assomme et le corps ne supporte pas ces graves cris Quand les dents du désespoir mordent l’esprit Quand la mort cannibale veut-elle faire de nous une bouchée Nous nous réfugions dans notre jardin intérieur Quelqu’un nous chante une berceuse et peu à peu notre je enfantin s’endort Nous retrouvons nos fidèles amoureux de jeunesse clapotant dans les eaux de l’Océan Tout d’un coup nous dansons la valse du couple joyeux Ou Nous tournons seules ou seuls nous apprivoisons nos peurs nous inventons l’état de grâce Malgré les maladies et les blessures Malgré le vieillissement et les accidents Malgré les tourments et les tourmentes La fête de la vie est encore au rendez-vous.

Adios Puerto Vallarta!
Ce fut une belle expérience relaxante que de faire de l’art tous les jours durant mes vacances.

Mon espace de création
Depuis le 13 mars 2020, mon espace de vie et de création se sont fusionnés. Autant cuisiner pour nourrir mon corps, autant l’art visuel nourrit mon mental. Ma cuisine, sa grande table de bois, ses chaises solides, mon portable Apple ont été littéralement colonisés durant ces mois d’enfermement.
Le thème de l’exposition était difficile pour moi à illustrer en l’art visuel mais voilà la photographie d’une installation de l’autel d’art organisé qui illustre bien mon désordre créateur.
Bienvenue dans mon intimité sans virus.

“Une salle à diner, devenue salle à dessiner, à placoter, à partager. Échange de couleur, échange de chaleur humaine. S’enfermer chez soi, pour finalement connecter un peu plus avec le monde, quel paradoxe. Prendre du temps, prendre du recul, se poser.”
