Here’s how to oppose Bill 2 to support trans, non-binary, and intersex people living in Quebec.
Hi, I’m Rowan.
I live on the Mixedwood Plains on the St. Lawrence Lowlands, in Montreal, QC. I ride horses, write, sing, and follow my fascinations with art and the natural world. The common goal of all my activity is to slow down, pay attention, and connect.


A smile of recognition, a hug, or the resonance of a human voice is always more nourishing to me than anything digital.
And yet, so many of us do keep the tendrils of connection alive in that space. I post on Instagram and Twitter sometimes, about art, personal revelations, or just to share a nice photo. Join me there, if you want to.
My next performance...
Daphnis et Chloé with Rafael Payare and the Montreal Symphony Orchestra
July 29 at 2:00pm - 5:00pm EDT at Amphithéâtre Fernand-Lindsay
Deh, vieni, non tardar
I wrote this for us .
“How Empathy Helped Me Change Careers and Come Out as Nonbinary” on Adobe XD
The risk in developing empathy is that something in another person might resonate with us, causing a deep and unaddressed part of ourselves to shake loose and fall into the light, refusing to be ignored. That is what happened to me.
“Not what I seem: How I discovered I was non-binary” on CBC
When I am referred to as “she,” I still feel excluded, invisible, misunderstood. This is a feeling that I do my best to transform into energy to educate would-be allies.
