A Symphony of Reclaimed Materials and Calligraphy

Cinthia Plouffe’s unique approach to art combines the beauty of the moon with her talent for calligraphy and the innovative use of reclaimed materials. Her compositions are further enriched through collaboration with seamstress Anne Laviolette, whose fabric creations add a surprising and delightful dimension to the artwork. Plouffe’s pieces are a testament to the magic that happens when everyday materials are transformed into vessels of new stories and fresh artistic expressions.

The Moon as Muse

The moon, in all its phases and glory, serves as a central muse for Plouffe’s collection. Whether fine, gibbous, full, blue, or seemingly on fire, the moon’s presence is a constant source of inspiration. Plouffe eloquently captures its influence in her work, highlighting how every moment, every view, and every emotion can spark a creative burst. This exhibition invites visitors to slow down, savor these poetic moments, and see the world through the artist’s eyes.

Creating Poetic Moments

Plouffe describes her process as akin to a river, flowing and gathering elements as it goes. She collects “poetic moments” during her walks, moments that she now shares with the public through her art. Each piece is a blend of the old and the new, where materials with past lives are given fresh significance through her meticulous and thoughtful assembly. The fabric compositions by Anne Laviolette play a crucial role, adding layers of texture and meaning that elevate the visual experience.

A Space for Reflection and Inspiration

This exhibition is more than just a display of art; it’s an invitation to reflect, to find beauty in the mundane, and to appreciate the subtle nuances that life offers. By slowing down and embracing these moments, visitors can connect with the deeper messages embedded in Plouffe’s work. The moon, a universal symbol of change and inspiration, becomes a bridge between the viewer and the artwork, making this exhibition a deeply personal and immersive experience.

Cinthia Plouffe’s exhibition at La FAB sur Mill is a must-see event for art lovers and anyone looking to be inspired by the interplay of nature, reclaimed materials, and exquisite craftsmanship. Make sure to mark your calendar and be part of this enchanting artistic journey.
