The Artist
Michel Gautier is a cosmic figurative sculptor, poet and philosopher. Of French origin, he is now Canadian. He thinks that the human being is a part of a whole, no more, no less important than a river, a forest or a mountain range.
He speaks about illusion of separation between us and the rest of creation. He denounces the unconsciousness of homo centrism with its blind materialism, erected as a norm.
We depend on the quality of our environment and its state reflects our state.
His work has as its theme the forest and the spirits that inhabit it, it is a point of view and an ecological metaphor of the most relevant.
His installations serve as a theatre for his performances. It is a search for meaning for a "total art", multi-media and multi-sensory, which is a true interactive experience for the public.
"Our thoughts have always materialized. We thought and created our world. So today we have to think differently"
In Quebec, he renewed his artistic practice with the printed arts.
He was determined to exploit this medium with the sculptor's approach and had the vision of a totem forest. This will be his poetic ecological response to deforestation. His totem forest he made with a paper for the manufacture of which no trees were cut, i.e. recycled paper. From 2009 to 2014 he explored papermaking with Papeterie St. Armand in Montreal. That's where he chose to work with cotton pulp from recycling. His forest has grown. With about thirty totems, it has become an installation, then the theatre of her performances. That speak of the instinct of domination and the illusion of separation that generates a chronic dissociation of the human and its environment.
This search for meaning is inseparable from his work, it inspires and nourishes him.
Globe trotter, graphic designer/illustrator in Paris in the early 80s, he created the communication agency OUTREMER in Martinique in 1986. In 1991 he moved to Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean. After exhibiting frequently in Quebec, he settled there in 2004. Today he is a Canadian citizen.
From Benin, where he was born, to Quebec, animist cultures have inspired him by their intimate relationship with the world around them.
“I am a migrant artist with a soul of many origins. I explore the places where roots meet, and where all space – or belonging – becomes one. I am looking for the Identity that brings us together " he says.
The many territories where he has lived have naturally led him to question his identity. He connected African and Amerindian cultures and he chose to be from the Earth, the unique place where he lives.

My name is Elena Iacopino. I was born in Reggio Calabria

I have discovered my passion for « papier-mâché » since some years, even though Art has always attracted me and I can say that it is in my veins.
I painted, participating with these painting in the first edition of "Xenia book fair" international exhibition of the outdoor book in Gallico di Reggio Calabria. I have participating too to other exhibitions.
One day I discovered the « papier-mâché » and became passionate.
This medium has ancient and noble origins. It is already present in the 4th century B. C. in the art of Magna Greeks who used linen fibers, mixed with stucco and colors to create comedy masks of the phliacic farce or cultic hanged from the branches of the sacred woods.

Guest Artist}My art is inspired by the death of the printed word. Books and newspapers are becoming artifacts of the 20st century. As a society we’re shifting away from print consumption and heading straight towards full digital lives. My sculptures are products of their environment — both literally and figuratively. As often as I can, I use local newspapers to add authenticity, and the form the sculpture takes is a reflection of the personal connection I feel to that particular city.

"It all started with the paper or some papers.Newspaper, tissue, coloured paper, ..., be it graphic, neutral, or silk printed ... The paper inspires me by its sensuality.
The drawing is not enough. I do my jigs, reproduced to scale, cut, glued, assembled. The drawing becomes volume and takes shape.
The originality of my work lies precisely in the marriage of materials used.

Guezennec Alain
was born in 1948 near Paris. He has spent his entire career in the corrugated cardboard industry in a sector leader. So very naturally when he had the opportunity to devote more time to his passion for artistic creation naturally he use paper and cardboard as part of his favourite materials.
Is their "experience" that calls him, the wounds of time, traces of usage, recycling waste. From an inert and poor material, his imagination leads to forms that may as well stay in the abstraction that come to life in evocations of animals or characters. It is the material to guide him, colour punctuates forms or support but not always, the evocative power of the raw material in the glow of the chaos that can often stand on its own.

These two visual artists seek to arouse the curiosity and surprise through the objects they creates. They can make the same model in different materials. Each model is then a proper expression, a different rendering. Experimentation is at the heart of their creative process. Questioning the matter, divert materials from their original use as part of their artistic research to create more focus and shift attention.Corrugated cardboard is their preferred material. They obtain from this material of everyday objects completely revisited with contemporary aesthetics. They realize through this material coveted objects for interior floor to ceiling, so that the daily life become more unique and beautiful.
Their artistic universe is inspired by graffiti, graphics transposing volume. The design is a way for them to create meetings between materials, locations, volumes, movement, people. Each object produced is the result of those exchanges.
The juxtaposition of their work creates new objects and increases the visual and artistic experiences.

Michelle Wilson : "My art finds synchronicity between personal narrative and contemplative activism.
My work takes the form of paper, installations, sculptures, prints, artist books, collages, and social practice interventions, all based on handmade paper I make myself. This paper is typically from plants I grow myself, or invasive plants I harvest, for which my studio practice becomes a means of clearing habitat space for native ecology.
Paper is traditionally considered a substrate; however in my work the very fibers of it’s making transcend this to become signifier, content, documentation of history and place, and embodiments of site-specificity.
The plants I gather manifest records of seed migrations, weather patterns, soil conditions, climate change and other intersections between humanity and the natural world. These manifestations in paper become a lens to view the greater world, and serve as an impetus to storytelling.
