Madeleine Bernatchez

Artistic Director - Prop and Set Designer

 

Madeleine Bernatchez is a scenic designer from Montreal, with an MFA from the California Institute of the Arts and a BFA from Concordia University. She is known for her love of blending traditional scenic techniques with modern technology. With a career spanning 20 years in theatre, dance, opera, and circus, she is now focused on exhibition design and multimedia experiences, continuing to combine craftsmanship with innovation.

While passionate about bold gestures and clean lines in scenography, she is also sensitive to the importance of details. Her career is deeply rooted in props and puppetry, and she has a strong interest in objects and how their forms and textures can tell a story and help transform our relationship with space.

As Head of Scenography at Supply + Demand , she leads a team in creating bold, site-specific designs that push storytelling and spatial design boundaries. Her work is fuelled by a passion for exploration, transformation, and the power of visual narrative.
