Coffee and Meet: “Transformation” exhibition by Denise Violette Michaud

Transformation, an exhibition by artist Denise Violette Michaud, presented at the City Hall Gallery.

 

In this exhibition, the artist presents textile works made from used fabrics and recycled objects. This approach allows her to extend the life of materials by incorporating them into her creations, thereby diverting them from a landfill fate and giving them new value in a sustainable creative process. Each piece is unique and reveals layers of colors and textures, hand-sewn seams, and fragments of recovered objects. Dyed with plants and rusted metals, the fabrics engage in a dialogue between vitality and decomposition, giving rise to organic structures rich in meaning.
