About
Weaving together words and images, Anne-Marie Proulx creates poetic worlds drawing on our conversations with the land and our relationship with language. Her ongoing projects are rooted in her considerations on the mutual bonds that must be formed and maintained with our natural environment, a reflection stemming from an exchange of ideas and perspectives, thanks in part to an Innu-Quebec friendship and various collaborative approaches.
Her work has been presented in exhibitions at Vox (Montréal, 2023), Arprim (Montréal, 2022), Espaces F (Matane, 2020), Vaste et Vague (Carleton-sur-mer, 2019), Maison de la littérature in conjunction with Manif d’art 9 - the Québec city biennale (Québec, 2019), Galerie des arts visuels, Université Laval (Québec, 2018), Occurrence in conjunction with MOMENTA biennale de l’image (Montréal, 2017), YYZ (Toronto, 2017), Panache art actuel (Baie-Comeau, 2016) and La Centrale Galerie Powerhouse (Montréal, 2014). Her works were also shown internationally in collective exhibitions at Canada House (London, UK, 2022), Stryx (Birmingham, UK, 2019), xhibit, exhibition space of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna (Austria, 2019) and FRAC Lorraine (Metz, France, 2018). It was also included in group exhibitions in Québec and Canada (AdMare, Arprim, Capture Photography Festival, Est-Nord-Est, Fonderie Darling, Galerie UQO, Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, Rencontres internationales de la photographie en Gaspésie, Regart). Her texts were published in books and magazines (Ciel variable, Eastern Edge, Éditions du Renard, Esse, YYZ), and she presented lectures at conferences in Québec and internationally. Her photobook Le jardin d’après was published by Éditions Loco in 2021. Her work is included in the permanent collections of Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, Hydro-Québec and the City of Montreal. She holds an MA in Art History from Concordia University, where she also completed a BFA in Studio Arts after a year of attending NSCAD University. Engaged in her community, she has been working since 2014 as Codirector of VU, centre de diffusion et de production de la photographie. She lives and works between Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies and Québec city, along the large river where she grew up and which shores are being frequented by the Wendat, Wolastoqiyik, Innu, Abenaki and Atikamekw for thousands of years.
