Born in Cold Lake, Alberta, Marc Dulude lives and works in Montréal. An emerging artist, he already has with exhibitions in Canada, France and Nigeria to his credit. His art is driven by a desire to astonish, distract, surprise and entertain, and the impact of the brightly coloured sculptural objects he makes from everyday items is central to his approach. In his hands, society’s activities and habits serve to represent the absurd. The installation he is showing at ORANGEJardin d’artifices [Garden of artifice] – was made for La Démesure. Glaneurs contemporains, a two-man show shared with Jérôme Fortin at the Musée régional de Rimouski in 2003. This “garden” is composed of recycled soft drink bottles and mechanical flying creatures. Human domination of the natural environment, in exploiting the land and consuming to excess, offers a telling perspective for viewing this work at ORANGE.
