Biography
Andrée-Anne Guay was born in 1986 and lives in the Limoilou neighbourhood in Quebec City. Her academic career vacillates between the Arts and Archives. The fruit of his work is a combination of these two passions. The archives are the basis of his works, his main source of inspiration. With the collage, she builds new links to make the fragments of the cut images speak.
Over the years, Andrée-Anne has made herself known through her many exhibitions in Quebec's micro-breweries and cafés such as Vice &Versa, Café Maelstrom, NYKS, 507, etc. She also participated in several auctions such as the annual BABA and artisan markets such as the Salon Nouveau Genre. She has a desire to make discover the world of the Arts to the public by exhibiting in these accessible places.
After training at Atelier Retailles in 2019, Andrée-Anne developed an interest in handmade paper. She began to manufacture and amalgamate handmade papers with these works, which allowed her to enrich her plastic language and to seek freedom in the gesture as well as in the messages of her works. Thanks to a grant from Premiere Ovation, she developed a collection of original collages in which painting, drawing, archival documents, and handmade paper mingle.
His collages celebrate the beauty of the universe in all its originality and complexity.
It consciously mixes diverse elements from different eras and cultures. Far from wanting to create shocks and confrontations, she weaves passages between cultural codes and languages to celebrate them with the idea of a great universal and timeless aesthetic feast. The result is a heterogeneous world and a new heteronomy inviting reflection.
