BAHAR TAHERI & MARIE-DOUCE ST-JACQUES | CONSTRUCTION, RUPTURE, RÉÉMERGENCE

From May 24th till June 16th, 2018.

“Images can fuse with our imagination, sentiments and individual beliefs, extracted from their initial context, they begin to tell brand new stories” declares Bahar Taheri, whose work reinterprets spaces and time through drawing, painting and installation. Her approach questions our relationship to political and religious power structures, reflected in architectures.

Marie-Douce St-Jacques affirms, “My life is a collage: I am a musician who studied literature and has a visual art practice.” The artworks of the artist oscillate mainly between sound productions and visual pieces. Fascinated by the paper medium, she cuts, composes, connects, fixes, (re)prints, proposing a dialog between singular forms. She imagines labyrinths and produces artworks which se considers as puzzles. She juggles with lines, letters, flat color and designs and proposes paths which are opren to interpretations.

Opening on May 31st, at 5:30 p.m.
