Paulette Marie Sauvé is a painter and tapestry weaver.

Over the past thirty years her style of painting

has consistently reflected her work in tapestry.

“My recent work explores the patina and rustic quality of antiques.

Abstract works and landscapes inspired by ancient and historical structures as well as rugged marshes and rivers comprise my main themes.

My work is created in oil and mixed media on canvas. 

I also weave tapestry using the Les Gobelins technique, and I apply ancient dye recipes to the yarns. 

Woven fabric imbedded in the background of my paintings recalls my work in tapestry. 

 Travels in Europe and the Mid-East have inspired a contemplation of aspects of archaeology and mysticism in my work. 

I paint an elusive image in a sort of narrative, that invokes antiquity, memory and passage of time. 

The impression of weathered stone, and fragments of glorious monuments give an element of mythology. 

I deconstruct the architecture as if artefacts are emerging from the deep.”

BIOGRAPHY:                      

Paulette Marie Sauvé is a painter, tapestry weaver and writer.

She studied visual arts at the Institut des Arts Appliqués in Montreal, Quebec.
Later, she was awarded a government grant to travel to France where she discovered

 natural pigments, ancient dyes, and tapestry, notably at the Manufacture des Gobelins.  

This inspired her to write about the art of creating with natural materials.

She obtained her Master of Fine Arts degree in 1992, at the Université du Quebec.

The MFA course included studies in northern Italy.

In 1978, 1979 and 1984  her work was shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art of Montreal.

She is represented by several galleries since 1978, and has had exhibitions in several countries.

Paulette Marie Sauvé has given lectures, seminars and workshops in the USA,

Burkina Faso, Canada and Israel.  

She creates commissioned paintings, and her work is shown in galleries, museums,

private and corporate collections in several countries.    She has obtained grants and

awards, notably in 2002, she received Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II 50th Golden

Jubilee Medal awarded by The Governor General of Canada.  She also received grants

from the Canada Arts Council, and is a four time recipient of the

Quebec Minister of Cultural Affairs Grants.

 

TEACHING & CULTURAL ACTIVITIES:

From 1992 to 2002, she taught visual arts and organized exhibitions and cultural events.
She then returned to her studio to work full time at tapestry, painting and creating illustrated books.

Paulette has published two books in French: "La Teinture Naturelle", and, "Le Filage", as well as two CD-ROMs about the history of textile art in New England and New France. She is a trained volunteer tutor for English Literacy, and a member of the South Shore Reading Council.


Born in North Bay, Ontario, Paulette has given lectures, seminars and workshops in the USA, Burkina Faso, Canada and Israel.   She creates commissioned paintings, and her work is shown in galleries, museums, private and corporate collections in several countries.    She has obtained grants and awards, notably in 2002, she received Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II 50th Golden Jubilee Medal awarded by The Governor General of Canada.  She also received grants from the Canada Arts Council, and is a four time recipient of the Quebec Minister of Cultural Affairs Grants.

 Tapestry:

The tapestries, as seen in the illustrations below, are woven using the 

"Gobelins" high-warp technique, in a similar manner to those woven in the

sixteenth and seventeenth centuries:

The artist often creates unique shapes that are sculpted directly on the loom during the weaving process.  

IridescentMarsh50kb.jpg (49051 bytes)

The following jpeg images show the triptych "Iridescent Marsh/Marais Irise", by Paulette-Marie Sauvé.  This was commissioned by Cadillac Fairview and installed in the Toronto Dominion Centre in 1985: in the first image (01), the triptych is photographed at night, and at an angle, (the room being too narrow to take a photo from the centre); the panel on the left is 9 feet high by 11 feet long (2.74 X 3.35 meters), and the two large panels on the right if placed together measure 10 feet high by 26 feet long (3.05 X 7.92 m).

" Paulette-Marie Sauve's project, "Iridescent Marsh", is installed on adjacent walls of the west lobby of the Canadian Pacific Tower. Borrowing from elements of Bauhaus design, she has created irregular triangles of exuberant color, representing her interpretation of the Canadian landscape (Flora growing in marsh areas).  Seen from outside, these shapes provide an interesting diagonal play with the horizontal and vertical framework of the Mies van der Roe architecture. The artist's interest in color is evident both in the finished tapestry and in the creative process itself-she made her own dyes in order to achieve a maximum range of color relationships. The technique used is high warp tapestry weaving with a wool weft and cotton warp. The combined weight of all 3 pieces is approximately 113 kilograms, and total production time was ten months." Quote from the TD Centre brochure
