Mōnad
Mōnad (from the ancient Greek “monas”, meaning “unit”) refers to the idea of a self-sufficient, unicellular organism containing multiple universes. Major player on Québec’s Hip Hop dance scene, Alexandra ‘Spicey’ Landé embodies this Mōnad. Inspired by this primary matter and energized by her symbiotic relationship with dance and Hip Hop culture, Alexandra ‘Spicey’ Landé and Jai ‘Nitai’ Lotus welcome materials and sounds that form and deform, adapt and transform as they interact. How can we approach different incarnations of a single life? Mōnad is a vibrant consideration of the relationships in interrelated universes, questioning the notion of eternity.
