Maude Corriveau

Galerie Nicolas Robert is pleased to participate in Future Fair New York with new works by Maude Corriveau!

Interested in the action of light on matter, Maude Corriveau transfigures poor and artificial materiality through the practices of drawing and painting. Her approach to still life intervenes in the digital universe to exacerbate certain optical phenomena such as specular shadows and reflections. In her compositions, which are both complex and minimalist, she transforms pictorial space into an ethereal world that plays on the border between illusion and reality, immateriality and matter. Reflecting on the skill of the hand in the context of current art, Corriveau updates hyperrealism not only by imitating a simulated and magnified reality but by activating the perceptual experience of her works.

Maude Corriveau lives and works in Montreal (QC) and holds a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in visual and media arts from the University of Quebec in Montreal. Corriveau is the winner of the 2019 Yvonne L. Bombardier graduate scholarship in visual arts. Her work has been shown at the Papier 2020 Art Fair, with Galerie Nicolas Robert, at the Musée d’art contemporain des Laurentides (Encan 2019 du MAC LAU) , at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (Vendu-Sold 2018), at B-312 Gallery (Pour l’art 2018) and at ARTCH 2018. Her work is part of the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec's Prêt d'oeuvres d'art collection and many private collections in Canada.
