Florence belongs to the Artists File of Art and Architecture Integration Policy of Quebec (1%). STATEMENT Playing with perception and movement, Florence works with the notion of space by being interested in the multiplication of points of view experienced by the viewer. The distance and the proximity to the works reveal fields of illusions and unexpected wavelengths for the eye, creating a dialogue with the environment. Her works are transformed according to the effect of light, leading to a variability of tones, nuances and densities. Working with threads for the past few years, glass and fabric add new trajectories and a new plastic language to her creation. She pursues her artistic research on visual immersions where art, architecture and the psychic are articulated. In the experience of the subtle, a transparency is revealed. Captured between the dimensions of the visible and the invisible, where rhythmic, resonance and vibration merge.
