Exhibition

Géographie multiscalaire

Catherine Sylvain, 2019

Opening
Saturday April 13, 2019, at 5pm

Playing with scale, point of view and number, the installation titled Géographie multiscalaire presents the accumulation of hundreds of delicate pieces of porcelain mounted on walls. Alone, grouped, spaced or aligned, these pieces become visual signs: sequences of more or less dense points forming sometimes lines, sometimes masses. The pieces can be observed individually, in relation to each other, or from a global perspective. In order for this variable geometry reading to take place, the viewer will have to play back and forth in order to perceive the work as a whole and in detail.

Catherine Sylvain, 2019

Catherine Sylvain lives and works in Montreal where she obtained a Master of Fine Arts degree from Concordia University in 2003. Playing with scale proportion, her sculptures frame the body and question notions of identity, relationship to the other and indorsement within groups. Her work has been presented in several solo exhibitions in art centers such as CIRCA in Montréal, EXPRESSION in Saint-Hyacinthe and VU in Quebec City.
