Laurence Belzile

Project realized during Nomade Residency, Anticosti (QC)

2017

During a one-week artist residency on Anticosti Island (QC), Belzile developed a series of 30 small abstract paintings. Influenced by the surrounding natural environment, she created on-site artworks which played with the notions of color, transparency, texture, and forms. She set three rules which appeared as the structure of the project: 1. To have no preconceived ideas, only inspirations. 2. Never impose work to herself. 3. Never force a series.
