Info
Lucie Arsenault gathers impressions and memories, allowing herself to be imbued by the moment, however fleeting. She builds her works from these fragments, like delicate architectures of light and silence, where colour becomes the driving force and white spaces allow the eye to breathe.
Working primarily with acrylic on paper, she combines sweeping gestures, fine lines, and vivid layers of colour to map inner landscapes as well as imagined views from above. Her practice extends beyond painting to include photography and writing, each medium contributing to the same pursuit of vastness and resonance.
Her work seeks to convey immensity and the vertigo of the sublime. More than a theme, it is a lifelong quest to which she is fully dedicated: exploring, across different mediums, the many facets of vastitude — from suspended horizons to chromatic bursts, from inhabited silences to invisible passages.
Her art thus opens spaces of resonance and breath, where the visible and the invisible converge, and where one can both lose and rediscover oneself.
