Bergeron Marie-Josée | Contemporary Artist: Artworks & Biography

Originally developing her compositions with an ink on paper technique, the artist enjoys integrating chance into her creations. Adding drops of pure alcohol to the ink, she obtains very surprising effects. The colours achieved and the extent of the ink on the paper become random data. Orange, pink, mauve, green, pigments of new tones appear. The artist then adds texture, gel, mortar, sand as well as textile elements, paper and thus allows the forms and details to appear through the accumulation of layers. Marie-Josée Bergeron turns the material over in all directions. The gaming atmosphere she invents becomes the pretext to the experimentation of colours. The forms and textures are intuitively worked according to a central theme governed by the laws of the imagination that engender the birth of the creation.
