Maxime Tanguay

Self-taught artist since 15 years, I've exhibited my work in Quebec, Canada, United States, Spain and Italy.

My paintings are like tapestries made of emerging patterns that repeat themselves, of rhythms and movements created by the junction of contrasting colors and fluids and of organics lines.

Painting is a psychological activity for me: it is emotionally and physically close to dreaming and meditating. I frequently picture in my mind ideas that I had and complex emotions that I experienced by translating them into shapes and colors.

When I paint, I try to reconcile opposites and to create vibrant images that seem animated with a life of their own. I paint to freeze time, to celebrate the beauty that surrounds me, and to express the inexpressible that dwells in me.
