VALÉRIE BLASS

Born in Montreal, Valérie Blass completed a Bachelor in Visual Arts and a Master in Visual and Media Arts at the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM).

Blass’s exhibition at the Fonderie Darling explores the erotic tension that drives our desire to see, in which our recognition of a familiar object is therefore constantly vexed—excited—by an eruption of the unusual, a visual anomaly, an ambivalence between resemblance and dissemblance. Blass has deepened her interest in the sculptural potential of the photographic image, therefore her exhibition suggests a journey through the metamorphosis of the image as a sculptural skin.
