Last solo exhibition

"Les jardins de ma terre"

Tissus_souterrains.webp

The exhibition Les jardins de ma terre presented from April 2 to 26, 2026, at the Saint-Colomban Library, was for me a deeply luminous experience.
The encounters, the shared impressions and emotions, and the heartfelt response from visitors gave life to my desire to reveal these inner landscapes.
For some time now, my painting has been emerging from a more intimate and organic place — somewhere between breath, the body’s inner center, and intuition. It is there that I encounter what I call my earth.

The work "Tissus souterrains" shown here, was one of its living hearts.

Hélène Lachapelle, Contemporary Quebecois Painter

Hélène Lachapelle artist 
in abstract and semi-abstract art

Born in Montréal, Hélène Lachapelle lives and works in Saint‑Eustache, in the Basses‑Laurentides region of Québec.

Her work is inspired by nature, by matter, and by the invisible forces that connect human beings to their environment.

Her artistic practice explores the invisible landscapes that dwell within us.

Through a painting process increasingly guided by intuition and inner flow, she allows deep landscapes to emerge—spaces where matter, breath, and light enter into dialogue.

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. »
