Emily Comeau

Emily Comeau is a Montreal-based contemporary fibre artist.  Having produced a body of work that is diverse and complex in concept, her most recent work focuses on the theme of accessibility in its many incarnations.  Her current series is geared toward the visually impaired.

Her work includes crochet and quilted pieces that engage the senses in unexpected ways that challenge the viewer’s relationship with textile based art.  Other experimentations include various forms of mark-making and alternative drawing techniques using Cyanotype.  These drawings re-contextualize discarded and inaccessible memories by reinventing themselves over time.

Edwin Janzen

I work across several disciplines to examine how human identity, personal and cultural, is shaped by our decision about technology. To this end, my work explores the exciting, diverse intersections of politics, economics, industry and popular culture during the twentieth century and the present day.

 Mon travail à la base repose sur les arts textiles et combine des aspects de la performance. De façon intuitive, je travaille et j’explore différentes matières dans le but de créer un espace pour l’innaproprié. En utilisant mon propre corps comme point de départ, je dévoile des informations personnelles à mon sujet et m’oblige à confronter publiquement des sentiments de honte que j’éprouve habituellement en privé. Ceci est de l’auto-provocation ainsi qu’un geste de rébellion. J’aime repousser les frontières et aborder des sujets qui rendent les autres et moi-même mal à l’aise. Je joue avec les conventions sociales et tout ce qui touche aux apparences, aux comportements humains et aux choses qui généralement sont considérés comme ayant de la valeur dans notre société.

My work is textile based with a performative aspect.  I work in an intuitive and experimental manner with materials and processes aiming to create a space for the inappropriate.  Using my own body as reference, I reveal personal information and force myself to confront private feelings of shame publicly.  This is self-provocation as well as an act of defiance.  I am drawn towards subjects that push boundaries and make myself and others uncomfortable.  I like to experiment with social expectations regarding appearance and behaviour and with preconceived notions of what is valuable.

Sarah F. Maloney

Je crée des œuvres faites main dans le domaine du textile et de la performance (principalement mais pas uniquement). Inspirée par le coté social rattaché aux traditions de notre patrimoine, mes œuvres ont comme objectif de rassembler les gens et de les faire échanger. Qu’un petit détail d’une œuvre ou son ensemble fasse éveiller le désir du spectateur à raconter à son voisin une histoire, une recette, même simplement un sourire, voilà mon objectif.

Since we all have different experiences and ways of learning, Humans grow from the exchanges with one another.

I, Sarah F. Maloney, mainly create handmade artworks in textile, performance and installation. Inspired by the social side attached to the traditions of our heritage, my work has a goal of bringing people together and to have them share. If even a small detail of my work arouses the viewer’s desire to tell a story to his neighbor: a recipe or even just a smile, that’s my goal.
In a world where materialism takes a lot of space, you sometimes lose humanism. We forget to say thank you and smile because at our age it is the keyboard that does it for us. I want my artwork to succeed in socializing with humans.

I create for fun, passion and love
And I share it with people to convey the same thirst.

Monique Mathieu

With a practice rooted in fibers, Monique Mathieu’s interdisciplinary approach focuses on performative actions documented through video, photography, sculpture and installation. Her conceptual practice centers on gestures to subvert hetero normative behaviors and explore notions of gender and sexuality in an effort to jam popular culture. Through shibori dying methods, she also explorer the memory of cloth and dynamism of silk.
