DUVAL
Montreal artist Marie-Chloé Duval's path is as varied and daring as her work. Initially absorbed in a career in criminology, Duval discovered her interest in art as she was finishing her graduate studies. The writing of her thesis will undoubtedly be the trigger for a push to express herself and illustrate her vision of the human being and society.
Self-taught, Duval developed his visual identity and explored the world of photography before devoting himself fully to painting in 2016. The artist participates in various ephemeral events and then in numerous provincial and international exhibitions such as in Montreal, Chicago, Palm Spring and San Francisco. Duval is thus experiencing a notable evolution.
Her art stems from a reflection on her academic background, criminology, and shows a free pictorial expression that is inspired by paradoxical social situations. It is through painting that she highlights this dialogue of paradoxes. She deconstructs the codes and symbols of society and, through painting, acrylics, felt pens and photos, she questions the place of the human being, the way we look at ourselves and the other, and then at the us.
His work reveals the trace, the capture of a common moment that reveals many things worthy of memory.
