After a short guided tour of Presage, participants will create a series of drawing-paintings inspired by the themes explored in the artist’s works (nature, personal and collective imagination). The workshop will focus on the theme of personal or collective rebirth, as perceived by the participants. Bright colors and various types of contrasts will be emphasized.
Artist Biography
Clovis‑Alexandre Desvarieux is a Haitian artist living in Canada whose multidisciplinary practice combines painting, drawing, and photography. His work explores Haitian identity, history, and spirituality, drawing inspiration from Vodou deities and the rhythms of nature, oscillating between abstraction and figuration. Influenced by Cubism and Expressionism, he engages in dialogue with cultural heritage and contemporary social and ecological issues. His works have been exhibited at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Galerie Hugues Charbonneau, and the Doris McCarthy Gallery, and are part of public and corporate collections such as Hydro‑Québec, RBC, and Global Affairs Canada.
