Claudia is a multidisciplinary artist based in Montreal. In 2009, she graduated with distinction from Concordia University in Intermedia/CyberArts, Department of Studio Arts. Three years later, she received the William Douglas Scholarship for her Bachelor of Contemporary Dance at l’Université du Québec à Montréal. In 2017, she concluded a memoir-creation that questions the links between documentary film, cultural identity, and contemporary dance. An autobiographical solo entitled Me, a little Malagasy-Chinese girl, was born out of her research and performed at the MAI (Montréal, arts Interculturals) in December 2016. In January 2018, she presented her first choreographic installation at Tangente where she combined visual arts, dance, and video mapping that retraced the process of creating this solo piece. Thanks to this project, she became the winner of the prestigious Patrons Award, Mécènes investi pour les arts, to highlight the quality and innovation of her artistic approach. Her choreographic projects have taken her to the stages of Tangente, OFFTA, ZH Festival, Phénomena, Short and Sweet, La Petite Scène, Edgy Women, Art Matters, Toxique Trottoir, not to mention the Festival À Corps in France and the Théâtre de Liège in Belgium. Claudia Chan Tak performs for several contemporary dance companies and also stands out on the theatre scene, while remaining active in the visual arts and video production.
