Baco Lepage-Acosta is a trans/non-binary multidisciplinary homebody that occasionally comes out to play. A slow walker at heart, although they can speed up, they work in resistance to linear time. Some might use adrift to characterize their early adult years, but really they prefer to call it life. The years spent busking from coast to coast, juggling clubs, standing on one foot, on a ball with a water bottle on their head eventually lead them to the journey of the Quebec circus school, where they graduated in 2019. Now based in Tio:tiá:ke/Mooniyang, colonially known as Montréal, they have been working on Paysages Dynamiques, a juggling piece that centers simplicity and collective listening, directed by Erika Nguyen and Jimmy Gonzalez-Palacios, as well as their own solo project 1+1≠2, a juggling playground installation research. Poetics to Activate the Technology of the Body is a collaborative performance video series with Be Heintzman Hope, inspired by guided meditations and the “how to” approach of a work-out video. Baco has taken this technical interest in video to the next level by starting Film Production at Concordia University in September 2021. Their main inspirations to date are: the fleuve, snuggles, ice cream, dogs and puppycats (in no particular order). They take joy in learning, jokes, relaxing, curiosity, honesty and friendship
