Dialogues, Sonia Reboul : Window exhibition
About
La Centrale galerie Powerhouse is proud to present the window exhibition Dialogues by the artist Sonia Reboul, from December 17, 2021 to January 23, 2022. A meet with the artist will be held at La Centrale on Saturday, December 18 from 12:00 to 2:00 pm.*
Dialogues results from the exploration of traditional weaving techniques with thin metal warps. The work is made with second-hand costume jewelry that has undergone a slow and delicate transformation that resembles a ritual tribute to the people who wore them: first washed and dried carefully, they are then dismantled to remove the links, which are then reassembled into long chains classified by size and color. These chains are then woven to create samples.
Sonia Reboul is a French-Canadian artist living in Tiohtià:ke/ Montreal. For 12 years, she developed an artistic body of work in a self-taught manner in addition to a career in communications. The illness and death of her father marked a turning point in her career, which she now considers only from a creative point of view: since September 2019, she has been pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Visual Arts at Concordia University in order to perfect her skills. Her creations, meticulous and delicate, are imbued with poetry and strangeness. With a touch of nostalgia, they invite us to take another look at the world and to adopt a contemplative state.
