A sanctuary cut off from the incessant informational bombardment of modernity, this Fragile Castle of the painter is a "shelter in color". It is built of expansive acrylic compositions, on canvas or wood, where thought finds refuge outside of time and space, suspended somewhere between the figurative and the abstract of nature.
Whole and unconventional - with a pioneering career in Quebec's cultural industry, in which she has been working for over 30 years as an artist manager and artistic director - when she creates, Brigitte Matte totally immerses herself.
A self-taught artist in continuous development, particularly at the Faculty of Arts of UQAM, she stirs, models, and sublimates, most often absorbed by music, the common thread of her existence, using various techniques. Each of her works is marked by her distinctive gesture, an irrepressible impulse from which organic forms are liberated.
