MAMAN, PAPA ET LES MASQUES DE L’AVANT-NUIT
Caroline Loncol Daigneault

Contemplative and community-based artistic action
With the furtive participation of singer-songwriter Myriam Gendron

Saturday, October 25, 2025, at 4 p.m.
At Sir-George-Étienne-Cartier Square


As part of Maman, papa et les masques de l’avant-nuit, a creative residency at DARE-DARE in September and October, Caroline Loncol Daigneault is undertaking a creative project with people living with Alzheimer's disease. More broadly, through neurocognitive disorders, she wants to explore life as it manifests and reveals itself. What is its rhythm, its flavor, its tone?

A capacity for being, more than residual, is discovered. A language that, far from dying out, shifts and transforms. In a park, an artistic action seeks to follow its contours. It is a walk conceived as a poem. There will be leaves to rake, paths to trace, and a fountain to revive.

Caroline Loncol Daigneault

Caroline Loncol Daigneault is an artist, author, and curator based in Stanstead Township. With a deliberately collaborative and listening-based approach, her projects are driven by a desire to enrich and nuance the nature of our relationships. She creates situations that seek to collectively broaden the contours of preconceived ideas about childhood, old age, nature, and the circulation of power. Writing, keen attention to context, and approaches to presence based on the body and gesture are her primary tools. Her curatorial projects include Ranger | Déranger (Foreman and Turbine Art Gallery) and Le Chant des pistes (AdMare), among others. This summer, she created Tourner|Détourner at her home, a multidisciplinary, intimate, and community-based experience developed in the form of a coming-of-age fable with her twelve-year-old daughter, guest artists, and members of the Fitch Bay community. With this residency at Dare Dare, curating and writing continue their migration toward dramaturgy and take on a performative form.

Myriam Gendron

Myriam Gendron is a Quebec singer-songwriter living and working in Montreal. She has released three albums, all acclaimed by local and international critics: Not So Deep As A Well (2014), in which she set Dorothy Parker's poems to music, Ma délire – Songs of love, lost & found (2021) and Mayday (2024). Firmly rooted in a folk heritage, her work aims to build bridges between tradition and modernity, between ancient melodies and avant-garde experimentation, between the territories of the intimate and the great universal narratives. https://myriamgendron.bandcamp.com/
