Dark and luminous self portrait, Circa 2010

Joann Côté  

Joann Côté, was born in Montreal. Her studies of the art of women's clothing led her to understand that it is not so much the creation of the garment that makes it vibrate, but the spirit and movement of the person wearing it.  

For almost 10 years now, she is devoted exclusively to art: painting, sculpture and performance art. In her studio, housed in a former garage from which there is often an intense and loud music. Joann works in her parallel world inhabited by female creatures…

Recipient of numerous awards, her art pieces are found in many private and corporate collections in Canada ,United States and Central America.

"I am a protagonist of the modern woman and all her fights. Enter in studio, do abstraction of the tangible world, disconnect myself. Transfer my state of mind in one line, then in one splatter, trying to catch the sensibility of humanity. These soft and sinuous curves reflect the chaotic world in which love and hatred woo."
