"Prime Forms"

MATHIEU MATTHEW CONWAY & ROLANDE PELLETIER

From September 1st to October 1st, 2016

 

Prime Forms borrows from a mathematical expression defining an image resulting from a geometrical transformation, transformation such as a movement or any change in the initial image that produces a prime figure. Also an image transformation process, printmaking is the symmetrical transfer of an image produced by the artist on a matrix that will allow us to see its mirror image. However, it is actually more the work of the artist that is the true manifestation of transformation. Not limited to the surface of the image, the works presented are a reflection on the creative process.
