FÉLIX (he/him)
Félix Dion is a multidisciplinary artist, poet, speaker, and community worker based in Sherbrooke. Through poetry, performance, and public speaking, he explores accessibility, inclusion, marginalization, and human authenticity. Founder of Poésie Poubelle, he creates spaces where art and social realities collide.
He holds a multidisciplinary bachelor’s degree from Université de Sherbrooke focused on social work, addiction studies, and literature. Alongside his artistic practice, he works in harm reduction and delivers conferences on accessibility, disability realities, and social inclusion for community, cultural, and academic organizations.
Born prematurely at 27 weeks and living with cerebral palsy, Félix transforms lived experience into artistic creation and advocacy, challenging social norms and institutional barriers through both art and activism.
