Rebecca Boucher is a multidisciplinary visual artist based in Montreal,
whose primary interests lie in in photography and its various processes,
as well as print media. The photographic image is a recurring element throughout her art, acting as a starting point for a majority of her work.
The heart of her practice comprises a variety of photographs, prints and hybrid images. Although figurative imagery surfaces occasionally, abstraction dominates her work. She continually seeks to push the limits of visual perception in an effort to instill new meaning and interpretation.
Inspired to produce series, she also creates projects frequently consisting of multiple images. The correlation between these images is examined, lending itself to a dialogue between the materiel and the immaterial, the infinitely great and the infinitely small, between representation and illusion.
Landscape features heavily as a central theme though its definition is revisited and expanded. Notions of geography, land, mapping and territory are applied to abstract images, common objects and forgotten spaces. As such, everything has the potential to become landscape.
COLLECTIONS
The COLLECTIONS are presented in the form of galleries, grouping together theme-based and abstract photographs, as well as prints and hybrid images. They encompass the images most representative of the artist’s style and vision.
PROJECTS
A showcase for the more comprehensive works, the PROJECTS illustrate the artist’s research process, artistic approach and techniques, in addition to outlining the most prevalent themes.
