Description
Artist Statment:
To live is to commit so much atrocity or to endure as much. Both paths appear rather futile, yet life itself holds an intersecting value.
Even the fragile beings, that seem to live only to die,
Even the snake seems to be created to only inflict pain.
Life is so beautiful and cruel. Where do I stand in the midst of all this?
Artist Bio: Baku was founded in 2018 in Sherbrooke. We are a duo comprising Stéphanie Lamontagne and Dominique G. Lemire.
Our passion for art emerged at an early age. In our teenage years, Dominique ventured into the world of music while Stephanie pursued painting and drawing courses. Under the guidance of Mr. Daniel Victor, owner of the gallery «Le LAB,» we began to professionally engage with the visual arts as a duo.
We have been fortunate to collaborate with local painters, 3D artists, and photographers from Canada and abroad, as well as esteemed artists including Dirty Robot, Mc Monster, Archan Nair, Aeforia, Nikolas Tower, ANIMVS, Jf Lemay, and many others. We firmly believe that the exchange of ideas is essential for our creative growth.
Embracing our digital era, we have successfully showcased our art on the international stage. We are grateful for the opportunities that have come our way and continuously explore new paths to evolve our artistic practice.
