Recent Works
Jan. 17, 2024 to Feb. 24, 2024

The exhibition features paintings and collages on wood and canvas, as well as smaller collages on paper. Part of this new body of work, in particular the paintings depicting Lachute's historic sites, was the subject of an exhibition at the Argenteuil art center in Lachute in September 2022, and was also part of a larger Public Art project that took place in the fall of 2022.

This series of paintings is inspired by the history of the Argenteuil region, featuring as many elements of current architecture as traces of those that have disappeared.

For several years now, Jessica Peters has been interested in her region's mutations and the related environmental impacts. The landscape is changing, and this is what fuels her creative work.

Biographical notes

Born in Saint-Jérôme in 1986, Jessica Peters lives and works in the Laurentians, Quebec. She holds a bachelor's degree in visual and media arts from the Université du Québec à Montréal (2009).

Jessica Peters' pictorial work is rooted in her immediate environment, inspired by the passage of time inscribed in the landscape. Her paintings depict spaces and landscapes constructed from fragments of existing architectural structures and places. They juxtapose diverse perceptions and propose several formal paradoxes. Subjected to numerous masking, sanding, impasto and scraping techniques, the pictorial surface bears the weight of the material and reveals the evocative power of colors and textures. Her works can be found in various private and public collections, including those of Loto-Québec, the Musée d'art contemporain des Laurentides art bank, the City of Ottawa and the City of Montreal.
