Thomas Corriveau
Born in Sainte-Foy in 1957, Thomas Corriveau is a visual artist and filmmaker. Since the 1980s, he has worked in drawing, painting, printmaking and animated film. He regularly exhibits his works in Canada and abroad and has produced fifteen public artworks in Québec. He is an associate professor at the UQAM École des arts visuels et médiatiques, after having been a professor there from 2002 to 2022. Since 2010, he has been fully involved as an independent director of animated films.
Thomas Corriveau’s pictorial research is primarily concerned with the creation of images through the multiplication of similar elements, whether in drawn, painted or looped animations. He participates in multidisciplinary performances that fuse the moving drawing with dance or theatre. Exploring the many ways of representing the human figure, he deconstructs the image, multiplies points of view and upsets our perceptual habits to present vision as an activity linked to temporality and movement.
