Nature Sous Tension
2026-05-24 | Espace Pierre-Debain, 120 Principale St, Gatineau, QC, J9H 3M3, Canada
Nature sous tension explore le fragile équilibre entre la beauté du monde naturel et les pressions silencieuses qu’il subit. À travers une série de gravures au burin – sur plexiglass, imprimées comme des gravures sur bois, et sur cuivre en intaglio – se dessinent des paysages d’apparence intacte, mais subtilement altérés.
Des virus, des masques, des déchets s’y glissent discrètement, signes d’une intrusion humaine insidieuse. Ces éléments, presque invisibles au premier regard, rappellent que même la nature la plus préservée reste vulnérable aux blessures infligées par l’activité humaine.

2026 Spring Red Trillium Studio Tour
2026-06-06 - 2026-06-07 | Red Trillium Studio Tour, Canada
The Red Trillium Studio Tour was started by a group of talented local Artists & Fine Craftspeople, all working alone in their Rural Studios, who wanted to collectively share and bring awareness to the Art & Fine Craft in their community.
When you visit our Artists in their Studios, you are welcomed into their private worlds where they create their honest, authentic and original works.
These are very special places where raw materials are transformed into original creations by the use of learned experiences, specialized tools, practices & techniques (old & new) of Craft & Art.
You will find exceptional Guest Artists at many of the locations too.
