ABOUT
The foundation of Robicheau's art is rooted in her upbringing in the Maritimes, where she was encouraged to create at an early age. She has studied at the New Brunswick college of craft and design as well as NSCAD University. Now the urban setting of Vancouver, British Columbia inspires and nurtures her work. She is grateful to be living on the unceded territories of the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh and Musqueam Nations.
Using vibrant colors as an abstract layer, Robicheau adds contrasting dark hues to draw out the form of her subjects. Her subject matter is decidedly pointed to exploring body positivity, sexual exploration, and gender equality. Inspired by human connection, her works of stylized semi-abstract perspective of the human form are intended to prompt an impactful inner conversation within the viewer.
Robicheau has had numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout Canada and internationally, including the Columbia Valley Pynelogs Gallery, The Long Gallery, and Gallery Merrick.
