An exhibition in Gallery I, September 20 – October 25, 2024

Artist Reception: Saturday September 21, 2pm-4pm

From September 20 to October 25, 2024, Sivarulrasa Gallery is pleased to present Lise Leroux: Reconnections, a solo exhibition of new works by artist Lise Leroux. Based in Montérégie, Quebec, Lise Leroux earned her Bachelor of Fine Art degree at the Université du Québec à Montreal.  She has spent the last 10 years experimenting and developing her own techniques, perfecting her skills in painting, collage, printmaking, and drawing.

Born in a farming environment, she is inspired by the land, forests, and by her extended family background. Working between abstraction and figuration, her practice is introspective and intuitive. In this new body of work, her explorations take her back in time, reconnecting with her childhood years. “I associate some of my most heartwarming childhood memories with being outside”, she says. “Playing in mud, water, sand, grass… the better way to reconnect is for me to go back in time.”

Lise Leroux’s works have been exhibited in numerous group exhibitions, as well as solo shows in Montreal. She was twice awarded the Prix d’excellence by the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Mont-Saint-Hilaire (2022 and 2021). Her works are held in private collections in Canada and Europe.

Artist Reception: Saturday September 21, 2pm-4pm. Artist Lise Leroux will be in attendance.
