About See the World

This evocative contemporary outdoor sculpture was hand-forged by Marie-Ève Fréchette. The Quebec sculptor is known for her bold choices of form and colour, often inspired by her early career in science. This large-scale abstract sculpture commands space through its strangeness, uniqueness, and vivid lime-green colour.

“When I'm in the workshop, I try to find myself in front of something strange that confronts me. Sometimes by the human scale of the objects, something that makes me smile.”

— Marie-Ève Fréchette

Marie-Ève Fréchette earned both a Bachelor of Arts and a master's degree in Visual Arts from Laval University in Quebec. She first studied ceramics in college and also holds a degree in Pharmacy. Before becoming a full-time artist, she worked as a pharmacist for ten years. Her work can be found in public collections throughout Quebec and France.
