II (The Vastness Which One Can Inhabit)

The installation II (The Vastness Which One Can Inhabit) refers to the creative process of artist Annie Charland Thibodeau, marked by the collection and the transformation of natural elements. It comes from a need to amass and intervene; to leave traces of one’s existence. These witnesses to the passages and changes that have occurred contain a poetic charge of mystery and wonder. By playing with properties such as the reflection or absorption of ambient light and the peculiarities of matter specific to certain natural elements, the installation rouses a conspicuous familiarity. It leaves room for various hypotheses around the history of this environment; a territory impossible to locate, but somehow feels so familiar.
