In a landscape often marked by the banal and the predictable, Dominique Sirois emerges as a voice of exquisite dissonance.
Dominique speaks of her early days, sketching in the quiet corners of her youth, and the surrealist currents that swept her into the realm of oil and canvas. Her first piece—a woman entwined with a tree, a dreamscape that entranced the surreal into her young consciousness—marks the beginning of her journey.
We explore the mental cartographies she constructs in her installations, where space becomes poetry and objects transform into ideologies. Her work embodies the alchemy of art, transforming ceramics and sculpture into vessels of spirituality and a critique of capitalism. Dominique's quest to channel the intangible energies that vibrate just beneath the surface of our material world is a central theme in her creations.
Dominique's work can be experienced in person at Patel Brown Gallery. To explore more, visit her website or Instagram. Mark your calendars for her solo exhibition at l'Écart, Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, in February 2026.
