Lysanne Larose

Visual artist / Artiste visuelle

A mostly self-taught ceramicist who favours handbuilding techniques, Lysanne Larose is an emerging Canadian visual artist who works in Montréal / Tiohtià:ke / Mooniyang, Québec. 

Lysanne Larose views her practice as an act of resistance; resistance to the glossy superficiality of contemporary life; resistance to the oppression of the standardisation, monetisation, and corporatisation of human existence.

While she primarily works with clay, Lysanne does not hesitate to borrow materials and techniques from other practices. In her works, she might incorporate rusted metal found in a vacant lot, broken glass sourced from a car mechanic, or rock dust recovered from a stone carver’s filters. She occasionally applies flocking or paint to further enhance an effect – and sometimes even injects some sly wit or social commentary into her art. 

Lysanne Larose is currently represented by Foster Gallery and Pottery. She has a small portfolio of her Metallics on CoEx.
