Yvon Bonenfant - Artistic Director
Yvon Bonenfant began experimenting with the voice on stage in his early 20s. At the time, he collaborated with Geraldine Morita (link to Mile Zero Dance) in a choreographically-led stage company. Since then, he studied experimental theatre and music, extended voice technique, bel canto singing and installation art, many somatics trainings including body psychotherapy training, and has had artworks, presentations and talks take place in 14 countries. Located in Europe since 2002, he has made touring shows, installations, published and spoken widely, often in collaboration. Increasingly, these teams include scientists and engineers. He holds academic appointments at University College Cork (Ireland) and the University of Winchester (link to UCC academic profile). He has been a Laureate of the Wellcome Trust Public Engagement Large Arts Awards. Two years ago, he gave long-form keynotes at both the British Voice Association Voice Clinics Forum (the key UK voice medicine conference) and at the Imaginate (Edinburgh) Children’s Festival to producing delegates.
