Meet the artist
Philippe-Aubert Gauthier and Tanya St-Pierre

On May 30, 2026, from 2 pm to 3 pm
The conversation will be in French.

In the context of the exhibition Intact au milieu des flammes — Dans une série d'architectures vivantes, the two artists will be in conversation with Sarah Ève Tousignant, an independent curator, cultural worker, lecturer, and writer.

This exchange will take place among the works, and is a unique occasion to discover the exhibition in the presence of the artists.

Philippe-Aubert Gauthier is a sound and digital artist, musician, engineer, doctor of acoustics and professor at École des arts visuels et médiatiques de l’Université du Québec à Montréal. His artistic approach is based on the interaction between art, culture, science and technology, from a critical perspective. 

Tanya St-Pierre is a visual, sound and digital artist whose practice encompasses computer-generated images, video and installation. Her work, both poetic and conceptual, uses collage and sampling to explore possible relationships between visual or digital arts and narrative.

Each having an individual practice, Philippe-Aubert Gauthier and Tanya St-Pierre have been working as a duo since 2003, combining their interests and specializations. Their work has been presented in Quebec, Canada and internationally, in places like STUDIOTELUS du Grand Théâtre de Québec, CIRCA art actuel (Montreal), IKLECTIC (London), the Foreman Art Gallery at Bishop's University (Sherbrooke), Hako Gallery and Oriental Force (Tokyo), as well as in festivals including Les Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin, and Art Souterrain (Montreal), among others.

Sarah Ève Tousignant (she/her) is an independent curator, cultural worker, lecturer, and writer based in Montreal (Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang). Her research focuses on visual, digital and sound art, with a particular interest in collaborative, craft-based, and site-specific approaches. Through her projects, she explores forms of co-creation and collective processes, both in exhibition spaces and in the public sphere.

She has collaborated with numerous Montreal-based arts organizations, including Eastern Bloc, Molior, OBORO, and ELEKTRA/BIAN. Since 2021, she holds the position of Funding, Strategic Projects and Exhibitions Manager at MUTEK. She contributes periodically to the artistic programming at Ateliers Belleville and is a lecturer at the University of Sherbrooke.
