Inspired by the colours and energy of Spain, Carole's work is multi-layered mixed media. Working on unstretched canvas she creates large colourful works from which smaller fragments are created. Exhibitions and reading, among other things, nourish her artistic practice. Places also provide her with impressions and feelings. Since 2009, Carole Morin divides her time between Montréal and Barcelona (Spain), the latter being an important source of inspiration for her. She creates like a poet, expressing herself through her sensibility, without thinking too much. She glues, paints, assembles colors, lines, pieces of paper, cut-out images. She sets them free to find their place on the canvas. Her work questions in particular the notion of "traces".
She studied Visual Art and Art History (Université du Québec à Montréal), later taking creativity workshops (artist Seymour Segal, Montréal). Dance and theatre improvisation (The Moving Center, New York) are also part of her background. Her primary medium is painting, but she also experimented with print-making and digital printing (Atelier Graff, Montréal). Her first professional exhibition was in 2005. To date, she has ten solo exhibitions and more than twenty selected group exhibitions to her name. Her work is part of public, corporate and private collections in Canada and Spain. She is represented by the Galerie L’Harmattan (Baie-Saint-Paul) and the Frame of Mind Gallery (Toronto).
