About The Artist

BIOGRAPHY Marie-Claire Plante (Mariclair) was born in Ste-Anne-de-la-Rochelle in Quebec. In the 1980s, she moved to Sherbrooke in the Eastern Townships where she currently lives. Passionate about the arts since childhood, she explores as many techniques as possible: drawing, painting, textiles, media mix ... She cumulates several training courses of masters in visual art, private and in groups, with recognized artists such as Francine Labelle, Seymour Segal, Laurent Bonet. In 2005, a visceral need to express himself freely brought him into the world of abstract art. She opened her professional workshop and since then produced large-format abstract works between automatism and abstract expressionism. She is a member of RAAV and the Federation of Canadian Artists. She is represented by Galerie Archambault Lavaltrie, NAK Ottawa, Galerie Perkins Danville and Singulart Web. Recipient of several awards since 2012, she is frequently cited in local media (TV, radio, press). His works are part of public and private collections in Canada, the United States and Europe.
