“My crown” is a self-portrait where I want to underline my feeling by being a Quebecer and a woman who wears the veil; how can I move between these two cultures. The fleur-de-lis which is an emblem of the flag of Quebec also symbolizes royalty and authority in which I perceive my veil. I want the audience to ask these questions: Why veiled women should be perceived differently from other citizens? What is the integration into Quebec culture? What are the values of Quebec? Why should faith and a garment be related to race or to nationality? My Crown, oil and acrylic painting on canvas, 24 ”by 30”, 2016. /// “Ma couronne” est une autoportrait où je tiens à souligner mon sentiment en étant Québécoise et une femme qui porte le voile; comment puis-je me porter entre ces deux cultures. La fleur-de-lis qui est un emblème du drapeau du Québec, symbolise aussi la royauté et l’autorité dans lequel je perçois mon voile. Je veux que le public se pose ces questions: Pourquoi les femmes voilées devraient être perçues différemment des autres citoyens? Quelle est l’intégration à la culture québécoise? Quels sont les valeurs du Québec? Pourquoi la foi et un vêtement doivent être liés à la race ou à la nationalité? Ma couronne, peinture à l’huile et à l’acrylique sur toile, 24” sur 30”, 2016.
