Based on symbolic conjunctions or metaphors, questioning, diverting or transgressing the traditional postulates of the art milieu, my research/creation is embodied in the coexistence of opposites in the same reality. It is a reflection tempered in an absurd seriousness on the methods of legitimization of Art through its institutions and the relationship between the work, the artist and the commentary that precedes them. Multidisciplinary, the works reveal fictional stagings situated between two worlds, thus generating dissensus and creating politics.
Seemingly out of time, the representations are intimately linked to places that are never definitively located. They illustrate and confront the conception and spatial representation of these places, creating a relationship between space and objects that meet and intermingle to better reveal themselves. These non-places are closer to a singular moment than to a reality, they are attached in an "ironic" way to the quest for the "sacred of Art".

The Digital Creation Co-laboratory was set up by Centre SAGAMIE and was made possible thanks to the financial support of the Direction régionale du ministère de la Culture et des Communications du Québec by way of the Du Numérique en Culture program.
