Sylvain Roberge Synthetic World
Inspired by science-fiction movies, Sylvain Roberge embarks on the creation of a futuristic nighttime series, where Montreal is the backdrop. Hyper-stylised semi-human characters denounce the superficial and hide sensitivity, giving us a false impression of invulnerability. Synthetic decors are the extension of the body and an expression of it. The gigantic format of the paintings amplifies this imposing philosophy.
