Duologies

This monograph explores the most recent photographic and installation works by artist Lucie Rocher. It presents two bodies of work designed to respond to each other in separate locations: De part et d’autre (Centre CLARK, Montreal, 2024) and En places et lieux (DRAC Art actuel, Drummondville, 2024) are two exhibitions that were conceived as mirror images of each other. The photographic documentation and texts by three guest authors reveal the imagined echoes between these two spaces and times of creation.

The title of the monograph refers to this idea of a whole consisting of two elements, in this case two exhibitions that are inseparable and complementary, to be read, viewed, and interpreted in relation to each other.

The works presented and photographed in wide shots, or focusing on certain details, will allow readers to identify recurring themes and formally discernible differences. Also included are photographs from previous research, belonging to other exhibitions, as well as archival images produced over the last ten years. These additional elements serve as punctuation marks that reflect the artist's observations on buildings, constructions, and forms that she later translated into her works.

Lucie Rocher

Lucie Rocher was born in France in 1988. She has lived and worked in Tiohtià:ke-Montreal since 2013. She explores her personal archives, which she juxtaposes with the history of photography and its various materialities. She obtained her doctorate in arts studies and practices from the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQÀM) in 2020. She has had solo exhibitions in Montreal, Quebec City, Gatineau, New York, Reykjavik (Iceland), Takasaki (Japan), and Paris. She has also participated in several international residencies. She was a finalist for the Pierre-Ayot Prize (AGAC-City of Montreal) in 2022. Her projects are supported by the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec and the Canada Council for the Arts. Her works are included in several private and public collections in Canada, France, and the United States. Duologies is her first book.
