Collection: Blitz

This exhibits showcase the variety of practices and talents of Quebec-based visual artists, highlighting the gallery’s stand on art: Empowering artists and facilitating access to visual arts  

Marilyne Bissonnette’s installation is a decomposed representation of her signature work. The viewer is invited to explore the impact the work has on the space it inhabits in a playful yet powerful manner. Catherine Bolduc’s series “Les hauts et les bas” demonstrates the artist’s ability and experience by gracefully combining a variety of mediums.  Using textile impressions as a starting base, she builds on with  layers of  acrylic, aquarelle and nail polish to create a unique art piece. 

For the first time, we are presenting a more telling piece of Cinthya Chalifoux’s past as a tailor and bespoke artist as she presents a conceptual piece resembling a dress shirt made of handmade paper mounted on textile.  Yannick De Serre’s sentimental and sometimes provocative process is exposed in two of his newer works which incorporate his technical ability as a nurse practitioner to perform medical stitches 

Finally, Sylvia Trotter Ewens’ paintings bring the viewer to recognizable Montreal places by including pictures of Montreal’s neighbourhoods collaged together to create a singular place.
