Lila Geneix is a French contemporary dance choreographer and performer based in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal. A graduate of UQAM (2020) and recipient of the David Kilburn Award (2022), she develops a feminist choreographic practice at the intersection of visual art, performance, and dance.  A versatile artist, she moves across a range of creative contexts, from traditional stage work to site-specific interventions and multidisciplinary collaborations. Since arriving in Québec, she has collaborated with Sarah Dell’Ava, Emmanuel Jouthe, Katia-Marie Germain, Danièle Desnoyers, the company Grand Poney, and Tamara Cubas, and has been actively involved in the archiving of several creative processes. Her first creation, Conjurer la (S)Cène (2022), is part of a triptych exploring the act of setting the table. In 2024, she co-created the public art work Éc(h)o: passage du vivant at the Panama REM station and continues her research toward a new stage project.
