About the Item

Archival photo print under museum acrylic. Dimensions: 48 x 48 in. Depth: 1/4 in. Edition of 5 Signed and numbered by the artist. Montreal-based artist and photographer Paul-Émile Rioux has been creating virtual worlds for many years that lie at the crossroads of abstraction and figuration. His works invite viewers to question their perceptions, oscillating between the reflection of a tangible reality and a purely imaginary construct. Through a distinctive approach that combines advanced digital technologies with photographic expertise, Rioux explores the worlds he discovers and extracts striking images from them: "The virtual digital spaces I explore allow me to propose a reflection on our perception of reality. We live in a world where representations of the real are often deceptive. By provoking both fascination and vertigo, perhaps I can spark a reflection on how we inhabit territories and manage the resources that shape our world." Rioux’s creative process also relies on the deliberate orchestration of algorithmic anomalies within modeling software. These irregularities give rise to spaces that appear photographic but are entirely abstract. The artist never uses photography as the foundation for his creations. "The spaces I create do not correspond to any specific vision," he explains. "They are virtual slices (or framings) of digitally transforming material. I do not draw these places; I implement possibilities." Digital creation allows him to explore notions of reality and fiction, questioning how memories are constructed and how we assign meaning to imagined visual constructs. Through this singular approach, where aesthetic exploration meets critical analysis, Paul-Émile Rioux is recognized as one of the most innovative artists in digital creation, capable of maintaining a delicate balance between the fascination evoked by these virtual worlds and the profound questioning of our certainties in an ever-changing world. ARBORETUM SERIE Arboretum follows the exploratory continuity of Paul-Émile Rioux, where the tree, as a central figure, becomes a pretext for reflection on transmission and identity. In this new series, the artist weaves a sensitive dialogue between the plant world and human experience, drawing inspiration from both the idea of an arboretum—a place of collection, preservation, and diversity—and the notion of aboriginal, evoking origin, rootedness, as well as collective memory. The presented works reveal singular, almost totemic trees, carriers of silent narratives. Their forms, sometimes fractal, sometimes fluid, seem to emerge from a maternal soil, recalling filiation, mother-child transmission, and the strength of invisible bonds that connect us to our ancestors and to the Earth. Here, the tree is no longer merely a motif; it becomes a metaphor for a bridge between generations, a living archaeology of memory and belonging. In line with the "Turquoise" and "Renaissance" series, Rioux continues his work of recomposing forms and colors, but the emphasis is placed on verticality, growth, and vital momentum. The digital textures, sometimes mineral, sometimes organic, invite contemplation and meditation on our own rootedness, on what precedes and transcends us. "Paul-Émile Rioux's works are invitations to reflect on time, memory, and the cyclical nature of existence." — James Campbell, Whitehot Magazine, New York Arboretum thus proposes a symbolic space where human and plant meet, where the notion of origin is conjugated in the plural, and where art becomes the ground for reconciliation between the intimate and the universal.
