Jil Guyon is a multidisciplinary visual and performing artist. Her work has been described as “new, dramatic, beautifully executed” (Ms. Magazine) and “moving, an emotional labyrinth” (Die Presse, Vienna). Her recent film, Rouyn Noranda, was filmed by Quebec artist Beatriz Mediavilla. Guyon’s productions have been presented at theaters, cinemas, museums, galleries, and concert halls worldwide, including Lincoln Center, Symphony Space, Queens Museum, Museum of the Moving Image, and Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.
Mistaya Hemingway is a freelance dancer, filmmaker, and urban thinker living in Montreal. She has danced with the Dutch National Ballet, Alberta Ballet, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, and La La La Human Steps, where she was a soloist for nine years. Mistaya also studied acting in New York City and earned a degree in urban planning in Montreal. Her artistic experience covers a wide range of styles and inspirations. In the last few years, Mistaya has been creating her own screendance projects and working with dance in visual projections and mixed media. Currently, Mistaya is working on an immersive mixed-reality dance and architecture project.
Jean-Christophe Yacono (yako) is a French-Canadian multimedia visual artist. Photographer and author of interactive and digital works for screen and the public square, his practice concretizes the transitory through photographic and animated imagery. He is interested in movement that generates interaction and collaboration. Yako’s work questions place, the fleeting and present moment, and the displacement of the gestural trace that materializes through the digital process.

“Performance Mix is such a great resource, and I was really grateful to be supported in presenting two of my works this year! I think the real multiplicity of artists involved in all senses is a continued strength of the program.”
