Helene Vosters is a performance artist, activist and scholar. Her aesthetic and political sensibilities were forged on the radical landscape of the Canadian Prairies, where big skies collided with a necessary and pragmatic collectivity to create a love for a language of spatial and ensemble relationships. In addition to her performance interventions Helene has created several original works the form of imagistic and absurdist physical comedies that explore questions of collectivity, pleasure, alienation, death and war. Currently a PhD candidate in Theatre Studies at York University Helene’s performance and research explorations are focused on using public space performance interventions as a vehicle to engage collective grief related to violence, militarism and war.
