RESIDENCE emergence
Ambre Morin Laurencelle
November 16 - January 31, 2026
Adélard is pleased to welcome Ambre Morin Laurencelle to Frelighsburg As part of Emergences , its new program for young artists on the path to professionalization, combining an initial residency experience, mentorship, and an exhibition, Emergence offers a unique context for experimentation, developing an artistic approach, and connecting with the local community.
Montreal-based artist Ambre develops a practice centered on sculpture. A graduate of Concordia University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Major in Sculpture), she explores the relationships between human beings and their environment, questioning the idea of humanity as separate from nature. Her speculative approach leads her to observe the organisms, bodies, and forces that surround us to imagine how life might materialize differently.
HAS Frelighsburg She will work with bioplastics, salt dough, stone, and metal to explore human and non-human morphologies. Between body extensions and fictional fossils, her sculptures will take shape in a universe nourished by science fiction. Their textures and forms, inspired by local elements, will anchor them in the ecosystems of their place of creation.
This research will also explore entropy and the transformations of matter. By examining the properties of materials, Ambre will seek to introduce an element of unpredictability into man-made spaces and to question our desire to control our surroundings.
Throughout their residency, the artist will benefit from the support of the management and artistic committee of Adélard An end-of-residency exhibition, planned for March 2027 as part of the Emergences program, will allow the public to discover the results of this research.
