Artist book made during a residency at Ateliers GRAFF, Montreal

jenn: Jennifer Bélanger s’intéresse à l’observateur accidentel et les éléments du quotidien comme matière en art. Parfois elle s’envoie des lettres d’encouragement par la poste. Beaucoup de son travail contient des éléments autobiographiques. Sa démarche pivote surtout sur les arts imprimés* et ce point de départ se trouve dans ses projets soit de façon conceptuelle ou technique incluant fréquemment des éléments textuels, du dessin et des éléments de la culture populaire.
