From November 11th to December 18th 2011, Centre MATERIA will be inhabited by a fantastic people: « Les Amourois ». Emerging from the imagination of the experienced ceramist, France Fauteux, these likeable anthropomorphic and colourful characters become alive in a phantasmagorical story. More than a fairy tale, this story may be akin to an allegory on happiness. After having being presented in some exhibition places across the province of Quebec, among which, Montreal and Baie-St- Paul, this travelling exhibition will be stopping in Quebec City, where the artist lives and works.
“I dreamed of an imaginary country with neither conflict nor war, a place where harmony and happiness reign, a kingdom of beauty, where living things and nature are in balance.”
