Marie-France Boisvert was born in 1976 in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec. In 1997, she obtained a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Communication at Laval University in Quebec City, then, in 2004, a second Interdisciplinary degree in Art at the University of Quebec in Chicoutimi and obtained the CR\u00c9PUQ grant for an inter-university cooperation with the \u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts de Nantes in France.<\/p>\n
In 2008, Boisvert completed a Master's degree in creation at the same University of Quebec (UQAC).
\nSince then, Marie-France Boisvert has received numerous awards and honors, has become a professional member of the RAAV and has exhibited her work in various renowned venues such as the Centre National d'Exposition de Saguenay and the Mus\u00e9e Am\u00e9rindien de Mashteuiatsh. The influence of his art goes beyond the Canadian borders. Indeed, his pictorial and sculptural work is represented in many galleries and events, not only in Canada, but also in the United States and in Europe, and appears in many private and corporate collections.<\/p>\n","demarche_artistique":"
Boisvert develops his approach through a metaphorical and playful approach. As a whole, the artist's work is articulated around a semantic of play and balance. The painting, often spread out in multiple layers of flat tints, gives the impression that the subject is suspended, and places the spectator as a witness of a moment captured and frozen in time. A timeless atmosphere emerges from the dynamic intersection of light and shadow, tonal shades and vivid colors. Marie-France Boisvert is a multidisciplinary artist working in sculpture and painting. She mainly uses acrylic as a medium. For her, the use of neutral shades, whites and gray values, refer to memories. The colors are then built up, first as a stammering, then asserting themselves more and more until they embody the form in a whole. Human figures or more often children with anonymous faces are found at the center of recurring themes that Boisvert favors: flight, hope, edification. And, gravitating all around, balloons, cubes, origami, as many objects drawn from emotional memories and children's games that have furnished the early years of the artist, give a particular meaning to the composition.<\/p>\n
Thus, Boisvert gives as much importance to the voids as to the solids in the space of the canvas. For the artist, the voids around become the setting and sublimate the subject. The artist wants to avoid visual overload. The simplicity of the forms, the uncluttered horizons, the pieces of colors assembled like puzzles, are erected so as to expose the theme of his creation in its greatest fragility.<\/p>\n","grille":false},"yoast_head":"\n
