CreatedHere Magazine “Nature is in me and I am in her” …

By Uncategorized

I am very grateful to be part of issue no. 12, “Enviro” of the CreatedHere Magazine.

Art Deeply sown …  “I do not know if I was inspired by nature or seduced by her.  I was born on a farm with the nearest neighbours kilometers away.  Huge gardens, picking wild fruits, being snowbound for days in winter, swimming in the river two, sometimes three times a day on hot summer days, working very hard, surrounded by wild and domesticated animals; all this was part of my everyday life.  This natural upbringing is at the base of who I am.  Nature has always attracted me like a flower attracts a bee to the intimacy of its heart”.

Every time I start new projects, I clean my studio from top to bottom, burn incense and meditate … these are just a few of my rituels!!

2020 is going to be a year of revelations.  I’ll let you know precisely what its about when everything is ready to GO!

Ophelia …

By Uncategorized

I’m very much interested in the effects of weathering on works of art.

Freezing rain from the night before embedded her body deeper into the snow.  The dawn welcomes Ophelia through swirling snowflakes and gusts of wind.  Her ceramic skin is covered with frost and marked by the ice-cold north wind.  Ophelia drifts into a deep midwinter sleep.

Recipient Éloizes Prize …

It was with a lot of heartfelt emotion that I received the Prix Éloizes as visual artist of the year in Dieppe this weekend.

A sincere thank you to the AAAPNB and the Éloizes team for your relentless work and your support towards artists.  Here’s a photo taken on the red carpet with my husband Michel, who has always given me unconditional support and has been by my side through every moment of my life as an artist … Michel, there is a part of you in this Éloize!!!

Exhibition “CYCLES” …

By Uncategorized

The universe is full of repeating patterns, forms, rhythms and sequences that flow through time.  I imagine them being carried by gears of stone and bone, machines of wind and fire, fabrics and wefts of matter that interlace and spin to infinity on magnificent cogs, spirals and loops of energy.

Humans exist in a cycle, just like animals, plants, stars and galaxies.  There is fertility, birth, death and rebirth in all that exists.  Everything is movement, everything is evolution.

Edmundston Art Center from October 8 to November 14, 2015

Exhibition “Imagined Dialogues” …

By Uncategorized

Within the elements of this installation, lines become blurred between what could be a fossil or an artifact.  Skins, furs, scales, shells, eggs or cocoons become cradle envelopes ready to moult or to hatch into a new life; or transform into sarcophagi, sheltering the remains where life existed in the past.  The installation “Sacred Vessels” also reflects the shared belief expressed through the metaphor that compares the body to a temple.
