Chilies (Detail), Oil on Canvas, 2011

Vol. 2
An exploration of parental instincts

Picture
​To create this series, I asked parents to send images of animals that they instinctively connected to. Many mothers expressed images of fierce predators, whereas fathers were attracted to birds. Some images instantly made me laugh, and others were harder for me to understand.  

Collaborating with other parents was important to me for this series. I have my voice and story as a single mother, but what I see and experience in parenting will be very different for someone else.  This series will continue to evolve as my parenting and artistic life continue.
 

This body of work was exhibited in March 2018 at Georges-Lauon.

More on Marielle 

Picture
This is a small collection of my drawings, paintings and prints. 

I graduated from New Brunswick's Mount Allison's Bachelor of Fine Arts program with their 2005 Fine Arts Departmental Award. 

I spent the next 5 years working in the community arts field in Vancouver. (With a few worldly-wanderings here and there.) I ran workshops, created large-scale installations  and coordinated many artistic programs. The highlight was orchestrating the community arts programming for the Surrey Celebration Site for the Vancouver 2010 Olympics. This site was awarded Best Public Event of 2010.

After Vancouver,  I headed to work for an alternative education program in the backwoods of Ontario. Regularly dressed in costume, I ran some of their most interactive and colourful ateliers. This is where I broadened my facilitation skills and fell in love with challenging people to step outside of their comfort zone.  

In 2014, I became a mama and we moved to Montréal to continue our life's adventure.
