Alan Lake
It is with the accumulation of experience and a multidisciplinary practice that he now approaches gesture, devoting his daily life to dance. The aim of his work is to bring these disciplines together in a common space at the service of movement.
He founded Alan Lake Factori[e] in 2007, a multidisciplinary contemporary dance company based in Quebec City, where he developed his artistic approach at the crossroads of dance, film and the visual arts. In 2018, Alan Lake joined the "Artiste Associé" program of the Centre de Création O Vertigo - CCOV (Montreal) and is also an associate artist of La Rotonde (Quebec City). He presents his work as a choreographer in Quebec, Canada, Belgium, Mexico and the United States. At the same time, Alan Lake regularly acts as guest choreographer and teacher at various Quebec institutions, including UQAM's dance department, l'École de Danse de Québec and l'École de Danse Contemporaine de Montréal.
Alan Lake delves into the heart of the human experience with his latest work, a poignant foray into the myth of Orpheus that testifies to the redemptive power of art.
