About
Merlin Matthewson (he/him) is a Montreal-based circus/movement artist who graduated from the National Circus School in 2024 with a major in juggling and a minor in duo-trapeze. He thrives on the precise intersection of the grounded and the completely abstract, where he finds that life’s most hilarious and horrifying moments often present themselves. He is greatly inspired by music, dance, and particularly film, but has trouble consuming art in moderation. He will often ruin songs for himself by listening to them too many times in a row. Although Merlin can be very competitive, he firmly believes that art should not be.
