[En anglais] In tap and jazz dance, “falling off the log” is a classic sequence of steps starting with a pretend fall: the dancer briefly leans back, off balance, before quickly recovering and landing a step on beat. Here, the dancer’s save of the movement is emblematic of creative practices in which limits are pushed and failures are anticipated. Calgary-based multidisciplinary artist Robin Arseneault reflects on this daring attitude in her latest exhibition, which draws inspiration from — and borrows the name of — the dance sequence and illustrates how uncertainty is meditated on in visual and performative art practices.
