Dominique B. St-Pierre

I studied visual art at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, in Halifax. At that time, I was interested in photography, which I integrated into my sculptural ideas. It is when I discovered glass, a few years later, that I found my true matter of expression… the one that inspires, fascinates and challenges me!

My imagination is influenced by the process of glass transformation, but also by the strength, delicacy and renewal capabilities of nature. My current work consists of living sculptures in which plants become a medium of expression just like glass. Through these sculptures, I try to evoke the relation between people and the environment. I’m interested in the traces left by my interventions. My sculptures are also an invitation to look at what is hidden: because behind every process there is a story.
