Through conceptual collections\, exhibitions\, and happenings\, this creative House pushes the boundaries of garment presentation. From performance to art installations\, the designer\, Cassandre Brillant\, uses unconventional materials such as silicone and plaster and dissects the garment through various techniques. \nThe House invests in Ateliers Jean Brillant and launches a non-place – the loüable space. Between a café\, gallery\, and showroom\, La fille de Priam aims to merge artistic spheres and revolutionize Montreal’s fashion scene. Inviting artists to showcase their artistic processes and immersing visitors in ephemeral installations. \nPre-registration is required. \nTransform your art business today and sign up for only $20.00* \nSign Up Today!\nThis workshop is available in-person at Espace Louable\, 3524 Rue Saint-Jacques\, Montreal. \nThis low registration fee is only possible thanks to our generous funders and partners.

SUMMARY:Pay Your Bills With Your Art

He graduated with a Master’s in Fine Art from the University of Connecticut in 2016 and a BA from Wesleyan University in 2012 where he became interested in how people present themselves\, the masks they wear\, and the differences between who/what is presented and how people really are.  \nKamar’s creative output broadly concerns identity\, specifically black masculinity. He makes series of oil on canvas paintings and drawings that examine how self-presentation changes\, from the perspective of masks\, performances\, and a mixture of both masks and a performance within a cultural narrative. Series of such titles as me\, myself and i\, Selfies\, Schizophrenic Masculinity\, Shizomaica\, and MYTH are ongoing projects that seek to communicate identity as a complex phenomenon. Kamar has collaborated with several charitable foundations that work with Indigenous populations and those in need\, namely the Artist for World Peace Foundation and the Jamie Hulley Fund for the Arts through auctions\, murals\, prizes and numerous fundraisers. He continues to collaborate with Université Laval to help scientists communicate research in Polar Science.  He has recently published his first book “The Artist’s Creative Vision.”  \nPre-registration is required.
