CHOREOGRAPHER
AND
PERFORMER

Fascinated by a variety of dance styles, Audrey Gaussiran trained from a young age with masters in Brazil, Cuba, New York, and Spain. She completed her studies at the Conservatoire de danse de Montréal in 2007, integrating classical ballet into her eclectic training, shaping her art with a decidedly cosmopolitan approach.

From 2008, Audrey accumulated numerous experiences as a performer, including La Traviata (2008, Ottawa), Sherazade (2008 to 2011, Canada/France), and Ballet Oriental du Canada (2011 to 2012, Montreal/Germany). Additionally, she responded to numerous choreographic commissions, such as the adaptation of the famous Blank Placard Dance by Anna Halprin (2014), Lakmé by the Théâtre d’art lyrique de Laval (2016), Par la fenêtre with poet Nancy Lange (2019), and Quebra (2022) with slam artist Sarah Khilaji.

From 2012 to 2016, Audrey found her place in Calgary within a company that deeply inspired her through its contemporary and rhythmical approach: DJD (Decidedly Jazz Danceworks). From 2017 to 2021, she performed and co-choreographed with the percussive dance company ZEUGMA Danse.

As an independent choreographer, Audrey expresses her social concerns through works such as Le 2e sexe (2014) and Corrida (2017). Her artistic exploration also materialized through the creation of Portraits dansés (2015 to 2017), a series of seven short films that earned her a nomination for the CALQ's Work of the Year in 2019.

Her creative repertoire expanded with pieces such as CTRL:N(2019), Fisheye (2020), and MOSAÏCO (2024), where her hybrid movements intertwine harmoniously with digital innovation. Her choreographic journey earned her a nomination for Emerging Artist of the Year in Laval in 2024. Audrey Gaussiran thus embodies a modern artistic vision, rooted in the cultural and technological diversity of our time.
