21.22 RBC Emerging Artist Focus
In response to the continued artistic isolation facing many artists as live performance continues to navigate the new normal, the focus for this year’s program is on Collective Artistic Process. Canadian Stage is interested in groups of artists, working collaboratively on a single project or research question. The RBC Emerging Artists program continues to encourages collective process, working with artists across disciplines and experiences, and cross-pollination of artistic ideas.
The collective/group can choose to work on a specific performance piece, either brand new or in process, and/or the space can be used to explore performance experiments and curiosities.
