Theatrum mundi I, Tortue bleue Artist-run centre, La Pocatière, Québec - Canada, 2013

The attached domestic objects on pallets and displayed them along the shore, at the mercy of the tide, leaving spectators the task of trying to determine whether the objects were coming or going.  The artist wanted to evoke the experiences of the men and women who arrived here by way of the river, leaving all of their possessions behind.  At the same time, the objects on the shore, rich in memories, are a reference to human excessiveness, which often stops people from leaving or moving forward.
