The artist

Jacynthe Bergeron

Saint-Pierre-de-l'Île-d'Orléans

Halfway between naive art, ‘’ street art ’and illustration, I find my inspiration in contact with the nature that surrounds me.

My intention is about promote joy in my practice and to appeal to the candid and tender part of people, their childish hearts.

My paintings are always constructed in two stages, namely content and form, an approach to abstraction and then to figuration. I explore the state of relaxation provided by the letting go of colors, the gesture, the energy that needs to go naturally without constraint, it is in this state without seeking a precise objective that I compose the basis of the painting: through abstraction. Then comes the figuration (intention) in superposition which comes to play with what is already there: the colors, the unexpected and raw shapes of the abstract background. It is at this moment that I express an idea, a concept inspired by my daily reflections and my realizations through a character or a staging of natural elements.

The line occupies an important place in my work, sinuous and lively, it captures the energy that circulates and unites everything.


Upkeep

It is best to wash your friendly little creature by hand, but it can also tolerate machine washing on a gentle cycle and cold water. She doesn't like tossing and turning in the dryer, so it's best to let her lounge in the air.

Creation process

Jacynthe Bergeron creates unique stuffed animals, each piece being the fruit of an overflowing imagination and meticulous craftsmanship. To bring her little critters to life, she begins by selecting recycled wool from old sweaters that she carefully cuts and shapes. The stuffing is made with carded sheep’s wool, which provides softness and durability. Jacynthe designs and invents each creature or animal herself, so that no two are the same. Each stuffed animal has its own character, distinctive details, and a touch of fantasy that delights young and old alike. Her eco-responsible approach allows her to transform forgotten materials into warm and unique creations, while bringing a sustainable and poetic dimension to her art.
