Danny Gaudreault (1979– ) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Tiohtià:ke (Montreal), whose practice is centered on performance art. Over the past twenty-five years, he has presented his work at numerous events and festivals. As both an artist and curator, part of his practice is characterized by interventions in public space. Through the intimate nature of his actions, he asserts vulnerability as a critical and political position. His work examines the relationships between self-exposure, representational power, and the production of meaning. Within this framework, his current research focuses on the archive in performance art, understood as an unstable, fragmentary, and fragile form. Whether visual or textual, these archives do not seek to fix the work but rather to trace the persistence—or the disappearance—of the performative experience over time.
