Guillaume Adjutor Provost

Through various detours, Guillaume Adjutor Provost makes use of referents, forms and objects coming from a consciously popular imagination (grass roots). He uses a certain familiarity of language that results from a deliberately inclusive or democratized artistic expression. His practice regularly takes the form of curated installations; working with collaborators, these encounters influence the materialization of interdisciplinary works hybridizing collections, sculptures, drawings, photographs, performances, video and textual works.

Biography

Born in the Outaouais region, Guillaume Adjutor Provost is an interdisciplinary artist who experiments with exhibition forms, collections and curating. Through a focus on collaboration, his work addresses what has long existed on the periphery of dominant historical discourses: class consciousness, counterculture, social psychology and experiences of sexual diversity.
