Martin Rondeau, photographer and sculptor who lives and works in Montreal, has been immersed in visual art scene for past several years and exhibits in renown galleries in different countries and continents. From now on, photography is not just a simple medium that translates into what he sees, it doesn’t uniquely fonction has a mediator between eye and subject, it’s now a material used to reconstruct, a chosen work. Hence the image is visually constructed and deconstructed, to take shape into another art piece. Rondeau sees photography like a sculptured piece. ‘’I transform my initial images to render a new meaning, a new reading.’’ The distorted images create a lack of reference, a timelessness, a visual ambiguity, an inability to situate oneself, thus breaking away from the known. The background and shape are pixelised hence causing confusing. Rondeau wants to reintegrate art into our society and wants to change our attitude, conceptions. That’s why taboos and things left unsaid are what he prefers to engage in and explore. His Corpus is divided into several series and it is on large works that the image takes form. His artwork suggest an initial exchange and reflexion, elaborating a new truth, his own truth. It is up to the observer to make his own personnal reading.
‘’I love to disrupt and art, leaves no choice and helps me transcend this desire’’.
