About the Item
Jean-Robert Drouillard lives and works in Québec City. Following studies in literature and creative writing, he took up sculpture. In 2000, he obtained a diploma from the École-atelier de sculpture de Québec (Maison des métiers d’art). Whether life-sized or small format, his sculptures are always highly realistic. The self-portrait or “self-representation” is at the centre of his work. He or members of his family become models against a backdrop of fables and legends, to which he adds a touch of humour. His art is an attempt to blur the boundaries between art and artisanship, claiming a lineage from traditional sculpture in his choice of raw materials and techniques. Since 2004, Drouillard has taught sculpture in wood, metal and concrete at the Maison des métiers d’art de Québec. He was also involved for several years at L’Oeil de Poisson, a showcase in Québec City for contemporary art and practices that cross disciplinary boundaries. In 2002, he founded La Coop Le Bloc 5, a cooperative of visual arts artisans, with the artists Marc-Antoine and Nathalie Côte, Ludovic Boney and Kathy Ouellette. His work can be found in several public and private collections throughout Canada.

- Night ShiftBy Guillaume LachapelleLocated in Montreal, QuebecText by Terence Sharpe There is a moment in Andrei Tarkovsky’s Solaris (1972) when the character Hari commits suicide by drinking liquid oxygen. As she is not actually a human, but an artificial hybrid product of the mysterious planet and the protagonists’ memories, she heals rapidly and is alive again minutes later. Her choice to take her own life is poignant, seemingly the action of a being becoming aware of its hopeless infinitude. Her realization that while the men will die on the space station or elsewhere, her existence is that of immortality, a deeply alienating notion that causes her to seek her own destruction. The Montreal artist Guillaume Lachapelle has one work that prompts a sense of eternal alienation that echoes Hari’s tragedy. The work greets the viewer with a empty doorway flanked by clinically white bookshelves...Category

This idea was inspired from a broader place of mysticism but I believe it still relates to the show theme.
