Montreal dance artist Sarah Bild follows an intuitive stream of physical imagery to create deeply textured works of dance, presented for the last 30 years across Canada.

In 2015, her 50+ project addressed the representation of the aging female body on stage.  In 2016, Sarah Bild began performing her research in outdoor locations. Her Wall Series (2017) was presented along a wall in Montreal’s Mile-End district as part of the T/S Festival.

With She Wanted (2019), an intimate solo performed around a table for just two spectators at a time, Bild shares a personal story evoking motherhood, art practice and fleeting time. This piece was revived this year and performed with a live soundscore.

More recently, she inhabits derelict urban and rural spaces to investigate sense of place with her performance, photo, and video project Le Poids du lieu.

Sarah Bild is the first improviser certified to teach Action Theater™ in Quebec. She is part of the faculty at l’École de danse contemporaine de Montreal.
