Marie-Ève L. Gagnon

Born and raised in Magog, in the countryside. Everything around me fascinated me, like the
details on a butterfly wing or rust on metal. What stimulates my creative mind is to bring out the
beauty in something ordinary, ugly or useless by integrating it into a sculpture. Or simply
sublimate an element already created by nature and give them a new identity. Equestrian owner
and rider for 30 years and veterinarian assistant for 20 years, i have a deep attachment for
animals and this is reflected in my works of art. After obtaining a college diploma in plastic art at
Sherbrooke, i continued to develop mu art in self-taught way. It’s by tin welding of galvanized
steel wire, copper and brass that i finally found my ”way”. ”Beauty in details” is an expression
that represents my work well.
