Peinture abstraite Efflorescence par l'artiste peintre Hélène Lachapelle

Abstract and semi-abstract art

Hélène Lachapelle contemporary painter

In her abstract and semi-abstract works of art, the painter Hélène Lachapelle invites us, on the thread of her imagination, into interior worlds where, from the void, movement emerges, between heaven and earth and far beyond.

Crossing boundaries and unifying the visible and invisible worlds, she invites us into larger, even infinite, realities arising from intuition and imagination. Project yourself into her dreams, let yourself be transported and discover her universes!

On a quest for authenticity and the discovery of beauty, I search for the free gesture between heaven and earth, the movement that will always bring me back within myself. 

Hélène Lachapelle, Contemporary Quebecois Painter

Hélène Lachapelle artist
in abstract and semi-abstract art

The painter, Hélène Lachapelle was born in 1954 in Montreal and lives in Saint-Eustache (Lower Laurentians), Quebec, Canada.

Already as a child, she loved drawing then, as a teenager, willingly took refuge in silent, mysterious, singular, sometimes surreal worlds whose meaning she did not really understand. She began her quest for painting in her mid-twenties and it was at this moment that she recognized in herself this need to create, to let her imagination speak. She therefore began to learn various techniques and different mediums. She always returns to her ideal and remains true to her voice. She enjoys creating her own images, interacting with the artist within her and discovering what she likes to call “her missing part”. Her dream is weave a bridge, a connection, between the invisible and the density of the material world.

As Christian Bobin wrote in his book “L'épuisement: un orage", “ I think that’s what an artist is. I believe it is someone who has their body here and their soul there, and who seeks to fill the space between the two by throwing paint, ink or even silence. »

The story of a dream

The painter Hélène Lachapelle through her collection “Rêver” tells us the story of a young girl and her dream. She illustrates this beautiful imaginary story through a series of paintings. Discover the story and her works of art.
