When I was kid, I grew up in a nice and
gentle suburban community. I was surprised to see people so
careful about their own property and so unconcerned about throwing
out their garbage in
the wood where I was playing. I learned to take advantage of
it, all this raw material. I could do whatever I had in mind
without asking anything to anyone. Then people realised I would
be an artist!
But my way was full of deviation. I studied graphic design at
the college and worked in a printing shop. But the moment I could
pay a ticket for freedom, I did. I traveled a lot, Europe, Asia,
and West Canada, working in any kind of job just to get on the
ride. I was so hunger to get new taste from unknown countries.
After few years, I got my pilot license
and fly. That was so powerful, so exciting. I did my commercial
licence, my instructor, got married to a pilot, got pregnant
and finally got seriously lost… faraway from my art
destiny.
I had to listen to myself and finally accept to follow this
sensitivity. I knew that nothing was easy in this world but my
head was just too crowded of imagination. I started to illustrate
some children books, worked as art director for virtual playing
game and did many contracts for animation series. Little by little
my personal projects took more and more space. I met my artist
boyfriend and then everything started to become interesting.
I was painting a lot. We discovered together a way of living:
art. In conversation with creativity. At this time we had three
kids, one each and one together and it ask us a lots of opening
to mix all this. In order to show them the way, I have to do
what was essential to me.
I started my sculpture’s series
of recycling material with a strong energy. I wanted to cover
all the walls with a new idea each sculpture. My first exhibition
was done without any expectation but I was well surprised.
Now, I am doing many shows around Quebec and continue to have
great ideas in mind. My dream: do a museum of creativity with
many rooms, each a piece of art.
