« (…) water gazed upon in its reflection and in its depths at the same time. »: Suzanne Dubuc quoted this extract from Gaston Bachelard, L’eau et les rêves, at the beginning of her cycle about water (2003). Now, she is showing us a third facet motivated by her fascination with water.
« For the past few years, Suzanne Dubuc has been explored in her work a moment, a place that live in her and seem inexhaustible: through the fluid screen of the lake, she observes the natural elements that are submerged.
In this silky and silent world, inhabited by furtive lights, wandering plants, sand, and sediment play hide-and-seek. Seaweed, moss and tree trunks sink into the deep, in a brief eternity that reminds us of our own.
To translate the reflection of this uncertain world, Suzanne Dubuc uses several techniques including paper collage. Working with successive transparent layers, this technique allows us to find, in each work, the movements of the creation and the logic of spatial organization. She invites us to follow the undulation « ondoiements ».
Suzanne Dubuc lives and works in Montreal. She has participated in group exhibitions since 1980 including Art postal at Arts Sutton Gallery, in 1996. Ondoiements is her twelfth solo exposition. She obtained a master’s degree in museology at Montreal University in 2002 and several scholarships from Quebec and Canada, from 1976 to 1995. Her works can be seen in public collections such as the Quebec Museum, the Canada Board of Arts, Hydro-Québec, Gaz Métropolitain and Air Canada.
Curator: Lise F. Meunier
