Eric Tardif Still-life Sculptures

Canadian, b. 1965
Éric Tardiff creates provocative and dynamic outdoor sculptures. The Quebec artist’s abstract work is designed to actively engage the viewer. “Playful while being contemplative, my work offers the viewer the opportunity to observe and react to the angle and the color of each component on its own terms.” Éric Tardif Native of Kamouraska, son of the Bas Saint-Laurent, it is by creating photo-graphic atmospheres at the limit of figuration and abstraction that Eric Tardif sought to translate the impression of wide-open spaces and horizons without end. Having initially chosen Natural Sciences as his first passion, he subsequently studied in the arts, including sculpture, to explore his talents. More and more, he decided to express his vision of things, and it was within the framework of his sculpture lessons that the idea of linking the dimension of movement and space was developed. Through his research and his discoveries on a technique of folding wood with steam, an avant-garde technique and not traditional in Quebec, he arrived at a singular mode of expression where the movement of his works seems to register in all lightness. He has received grants from CALQ and SODEC for several years. He has more than 100 exhibitions to his name around the world, and his work can be found in 10 galleries across North America.
