Louise Laplante exhibits new drawings on collaged pages of vintage paper. Interested in blending the old world with the new, Laplante combines her original images with ephemera of the past, enticing a conversation about it’s relevancy to the present. Her compositions begin with vintage book pages, personal handwritten letters, sheet music or instruction from old guides on etiquette or science. Most recently, Laplante has opted for larger-scale work, combining multiple sheets of vintage paper to expand her unique motifs. She exhibits across the Northeast and has been shown with Carrie Haddad Gallery for more than 10 years.

About the artist: Interested in blending the old world with the new, mixed media artist Louise Laplante combines her original images with ephemera of the past, enticing a conversation about it’s “relevancy to the present.” Her compositions begin with vintage book pages, personal handwritten letters, sheet music, or instruction from old guides on etiquette or science. While the text itself is weighted with reference to a particular subject, the visual of the typed or handwritten words and printed illustrations establish a unique pattern. These layered backgrounds are superimposed with opaque charcoal drawings that are inspired by the themes read between the lines. Most recently, the artist has opted for larger scale work, combining multiple sheets of vintage paper to expand her unique motifs. Laplante exhibits across the Northeast and has shown with Carrie Haddad for more than ten years. Artist Statement: My work connects the texts, and ideas, in the vintage book...Category

Laplante’s career as a head university librarian further explains her love of books and ephemera...Category
