Carolyn Laliberte

Artist Statement

I have always been fascinated with the ways in which people, places and things appear. The reality of the way things appear and the way in which the mind perceives that reality takes my thoughts into a process of storytelling. I sense the transition from the present to the memories, emotions, thoughts, sensitivities and exchanges I have experienced in life and all seems to start to combine through expression of layers. My work explores the multiple aspects of human figure with characteristics of animal qualities, stretching the limitations of reality to communicate in imagery, rather than words.
