Originally from Nova Scotia, George Stamos is an award-winning, multi-talented Montréal-based dance and film artist whose poetic, transdisciplinary works explore themes of resilience, resistance, play, and transformation. George works seamlessly across the Surreal-Experimental, LGBTQ+ Cinema, Dance-film, Road Movie, and Documentary and contemporary dance genres, bridging the poetic, the philosophical, and the political. His film and performance works channel an intuitive, embodied storytelling, where the person is both a valued library of experience and a site of incantation, infusing the ordinary with a sense of magic.

​

George’s career began in New York City in the 1990s before establishing himself in Montréal, where, as a sought-after dancer, he worked with prominent companies for 20 years. Throughout his career, George has consistently explored transdisciplinary and digital projects that challenge the status quo through aesthetics and discourse. In 2022, his short film SNAP, Archie's Story won the Best International Documentary Film Award at the Overcome Film Festival.
