Sophie Asselin Canadian, b. 1980

Sophie Asselin is a French Canadian self-taught artist based in Montreal.

 

Following a background in visual arts and graphic design, she began a successful career in photography. In 2018, she started to work intensively with abstract art in order to explore a more intimate and personal visual language.


At the end of 2021, the artist’s career took an important turn; Sophie acquires a mastery of colours and a more assumed style. The use of oil paint plays a significant role in this breakthrough. This medium is perfectly suited to the creative spirit of the artist. Attracted by experimentation, oil offers her new avenues of exploration.


In just a few years, her work is being noticed across North America. Her works are part of many private collections in Canada, the United States, Europe, Asia and also Australia.
