Originally from Sainte-Louise, New Brunswick, Émily Bédard is a 17-year-old artist and Grade 12 student at École Secondaire Népisiguit in Bathurst. Always drawn to drawing and painting, Émily explores human emotions and the symbolic universe with a sensitivity that is astonishing for her age.

In "La fin," she offers a powerful and poetic artistic vision of the death of the solar system. Her eponymous centerpiece evokes a dying sun surrounded by planets on the verge of exploding, while the rest of the exhibition features works inspired by the history of certain planets, human emotions, and portraits that are both gentle and unsettling.

Through acrylics, colored pencils, dry pastels, and clay sculpture, Emily weaves a personal universe where science fiction, introspection, and raw expressiveness converge. This exhibition marks her first foray into professional artistic life and a unique opportunity to share her passion with the public.
