Life and work

Christiane Chabot was born in December 1950 in Jonquière, Quebec. [1] Chabot studied plastic arts at the Cégep de Jonquière from 1969 until 1971, followed by studying visual art at the Université Laval from 1972 to 1975. [2] She attended the École des Beaux-Arts twice, first in 1976-77 and again in 1981–82. [1]

She holds a dual citizenship for France and Canada. She works and lives in Paris and Montreal. [2]

The mix of work during the early years, drawing, painting, etching and photography, led towards the opening up of an interdisciplinary perspective that has progressively become firmly established in recent years, with the inclusion of such spheres as sculpture, installations, video and computer graphics.
