ON LINE
Curated by Anne-Marie Proulx
and Nicole Legault

Lines can be used as a means of description, expression or as a fundamental step of the process. From the line of a pencil to the materiality of a line such as a thread, the artists explore the importance of line in their practice.

Kaori Furuta
Through my gaze
(Drawing)
I create portraits of people that are composed of symbols that I have carved. I
introduce these people to you with the forms that I have found to represent the relationship I have with them.

Matthew Goerzen
Untitled
(Painting, drawing, print)
A series of portraits exploring the tenuous reality of their subjects by walking the line between mere abstraction and mere representation while aiming to capture a
reality greater than both.

Julie Fournier-Lévesque
Le temps fait son oeuvre un
pansement à la fois
(Sculpture)
Cette pièce décrit la vulnérabilité humaine, mais aussi, sa force. A la fois éphémère et éternel, elle rend hommage à la guérison.

David Saul Abraham

parallel that of the products themselves.
