Starting off its innaugral season at Pearson College UWC, the youth collective comprised of students from around the world embarks on montly workshop series each tackling particular local species of Vancouver Island as inspiration for art-making.

The first workshop is centred on TRAILS N’ MARKERS, an exploration of the ways species navigate the forest, the skys, and the waterways. Looking into migration routes, territorial markers, and various interspecies distinguishing of space and land, the collective will respond creatively by creating their own trails or markers throughout the campus wildnerness. 🐊✨

Official launch of our experimental film project shot on Prince Edward Island throughout the pandemic. Featuring performances by Alyssa Coghlin, Alexander MacKay, and Lucas Olscamp. Sound design by Alejandro Mora and visual design by Lucas Olscamp.

Official limited publishing run of SO YOU THINK YOU’RE A WOLF? A Existential Children’s Book for Wild Folk written by Lucas Olscamp and conceived through collaboration with Alyssa Coghlin.

Official limited run book launch of Blood n’ Butter, a book of macabre poetry written by Alejandro Mora and visual design by Lucas Olscamp.

Two years of collaboration; two years of creation; two years of absolute chaos. ✨

We wanted to take a moment away from all the madness to celebrate and thank every single person who helped us in this wild and wondrous journey—producing six shows across four continents including world premiers in Melbourne, Toronto, Prague, and San Jose.

And although we are a beast still finding its way amongst the wild (with many thorns and thistles now tangled amongst our fur)—we couldn’t do it without all of you. 

Thank you, from us creatures to you critters. 🐊🖤

A body stands alone in a makeshift bedroom littered with remants of the person they used to be. Staring into the mirror, facing the demons lurking just beyond their reach, a single trickle of blood snakes down their chin. Attempting to rid themselves of the filth (or the truth), they quickly wipe the blood away—but it will not stop. 🥀

Witnessing the seemingly endless cycle of bleed and bandage, the audience quickly become voyeurs in a hidden world of both anatomical and psychological turmoil, watching as the the blood becomes captor in an age-old battle of repression and inevitable transformation. 🌹

Presented as part of the Prague Quadrennial 2019.

A translucent plastic bag dances amongst the ghosts of the dead. Discarded fragment or portal to a netherworld, the body is remade in plastic and a funeral is held. 🌹

Part material dissection / part imaginary biographical assemblage. This hybrid ritual calls for a retelling of final rites and asks of an immortal object to speak truth to a mortal ghost. Slipping between ritual mourning and macabre reunion, spirits are called, ashes are scattered, asnd the dead is buried—only to be born again. 🔥
