Simon Bilodeau combines monochrome painting and sculpture to create a dramatized representation of reality. In this skewed but accessible vision, Bilodeau questions the role and status of the artist in relation to art consumers (viewers) and traditional spaces for viewing art (exhibition spaces).
Simon Bilodeau was born in Laval, QC, in 1981. He completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) in 2006 and since then he has been active in the Québec art scene.
