“I like to play with the ambiguity of perception. In life, everything is subject to interpretation depending on how we read reality. Our individual experiences apply a filter to reality, which becomes our perception”.
“Although my painting is abstract, my pictorial approach is narrative. My works tell stories. My paintings, where forms intertwine, confuse meanings. They offer a plural, complex, and confounding reading of the stories sketched. Universal, timeless stories that speak to the essence of being, that are traced through our common genesis. And here and there, in the dreamlike abstraction of the canvases, ancient, primitive motifs and everyday objects intertwine. And our own stories call out to each other”.
“I work primarily in acrylic, ink, and pastel. I prefer paper because it demonstrates the frangibility and sensitivity of the painted stories”.
Danielle Lauzon lives and paints in Ste-Julienne in Lanaudière, Quebec, Canada.
