Inspired by the ways in which people can come together through collaboration and positivity, Au Diapason is a work by Montreal-based artist Marianne Chevalier. To create this work, the artist held a workshop with local children to create dozens of special designs, which she later transformed using her signature technique of applying digital colors and details to hand-made paper collages.
This installation is composed of 140 individually sublimated ALTO™ Aluminum tiles installed by Infravert on black metal supports that at once enhance the colors of the tiles and create a dynamic 3D effect. The installation flows with the brickwork of the community center, while creating a visually unique focal point to attract attention and curiosity.
