Alexandre Choquette

For the art exhibition Sima: Wintering together, Alexandre is showcasing a collaborative piece with artist Anne Isabelle Leonard Winters :

Winters, 2022

24 digital photography, fine art print
ink & acrylic on 300g paper.

For Sima, Alexandre Choquette and Anne Isabelle Leonard explore a dialogue of lived experience across mediums. Accomplished adventurers of the North, partners in the back-country, both live and feel winter similarly, but proceed to tell its stories using distinct artistic languages. Using Alexandre’s textured landscape photographs as a canvas, Anne Isabelle superposes their experiences of wandering into the back-country by painting and drawing her own feels of being submerged in these winter sceneries.

/ bio.

Alexandre is an adventure photographer and quantum physicist from Quebec. He has always been captivated by how natural phenomena occur. When adventuring in the outdoors, he would focus on details and textures he found along his way and wonder what could possibly have brought them into existence and what will happen to them. Through photography, he found a way to share this fascination of his and make the observer stare at what he captured for as long as he did. Alexandre now shares his time between Northwestern British-Columbia and Montreal.
