THE ARTISTS

FROMTHECORNER PRODUCTIONS  
Selective Memory 
​

[Image Description]: Todd is sitting on a chair with his hands holding headphones on his ears while looking down. He is wearing a black shirt that says BLACK AND DOPE. He has pink and blue bracelets on his right arm.
 In Jamaican Sound System culture, the ‘Selector’ is the one who selects what record to play at a sound clash. Exploring the idea that items hold memories, Selective Memory is an interactive DJ set. Audience members become the Selectors, choosing records from Todd’s collection, and he shares the deeply personal stories that reside within each piece of vinyl. 

Shanae Sodhi (he/him) is a recent graduate of Studio 58 where he was one of the establishing members and Head Organizer of the school's Student Diversity Committee, a student lead group working to strengthen marginalized groups within the theatre community by empowering students with the tools and knowledge to engage in the conversations of inclusivity around them. Shanae’s work is influenced by decolonization and intersectionality. He works as Rumble Theatre’s Associate Artistic Producer. Recent producing credits: Coyuntura 2020 (Canadian Latinx Theatre Artist Coallition), Straight White Men (ITSAZOO Productions), and Mx (winner of 2019 Fringe New Play Prize and Cultchivating the Fringe Award)

Todd Simmons (he/him)
 is a DJ, performer and producer( with releases on Ellum, My Favourite Robot, No.19, Apersonal Music and DoRight Music.) Now exploring ways to curate experiences by ‘DJing’ things, people and ideas, Todd’s artistic practice is guided by his belief that art is simply a form of communication as conveyed in one of his favourite quotes;
"...some ideas can not be spoken or expressed through the written word. So they must be danced." (E.I.)


Omar David Rivero (he/him), also known as Driftnote, is a musician and multimedia artist whose work is centred around improvisation, interactivity, audio and visual installations as well as 3D imaging. Rivero explores questions of materiality and embodiment when looking at systems, cultural erasure, and identity in the african/indigenous diaspora. His research is situated in reassessing methodologies of image making, archives, and self-portraiture.

蒸蛋羹 / Steamed Eggs 

2 eggs 
200ml stock
2tsp soy sauce
1/4tsp sesame oil 
1 cup rice 
--
a place once called home is a guided narrative cooking class, where the performer (chef) and audience member (sous chef) create something tangible together, exploring family, tradition, and home. 


angelica schwartz (they/them) is a director and collective creator born on Treaty 1 Territory (Winnipeg, MB). Stephanie Wong (she/her) is an actor, designer, director and creator.

They are focused on theatre practices that challenge traditional forms of storytelling, and bridge cultures. With backgrounds in devising, technology, design, and performance, they create work that is immersive and provocative. Their artistic creation strives to find optimism amidst existential dread.
[Image Description]: On a wooden table, there is a drawing of two hands holding chopsticks, digging into a bowl of rice and egg. The colours are muted and warm yellows and browns.

HOWARD DAI
The Rex Project

[Image Description]: This painted collage of 5 images uses bright colours to depict 2 people’s legs dancing, a hallway, and abstract paintings with lots of movement.
In a futuristic world, where the integration of human memories and computer cores has created artificially intelligent androids, you have been recruited to be an integral part of the quality-control in the emotional development sector. The Rex Project is an immersive, theatrical experiment that explores the theme of memory.

Howard Dai (he/him) is a Taiwanese-Canadian theatre-maker; who works and lives on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories belonging to the Qayqayt, Musqueam, Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh Nation. He is a recent graduate of the BFA in Theatre Performance program at Simon Fraser University School for the Contemporary Arts. As a theatre artist, Howard is interested in works that break through the barrier of architecture to become more accessible and immersive for a wider audience. He also writes music, and is dipping his toes in design and coding. He sorta does a bit of everything, but wishes he is actually good at something.
