Nicole Taillon profil

Working with clay for inspiration, she combines bronze with other metals and materials.

In addition to her creative work exhibited in galleries, Nicole designs commissioned fountains, garden sculptures.
She quickly carved out a place for herself among Canadian artists and then in internationnal scene.

«  If Sculpture is the art of giving life to space, then Nicole Taillon ranks among those who accomplish what they were born for. She projects her forms, human or animal, with energy in all the dimensions of the imagination, and, through the bold marriage of contrasting materials, also becomes a painter in volumes. Her youth and apparent frailty suggest a sort of resurgence of former lives that confer onto her work an ancestral force. She therefore belongs to our era and to all times. For those who can see, there is music in her style of creation. Nicole Taillon has no other commitment than to live fully and to create. Success is no farther than the tip of her heart. »

Eddy Marnay /  French Lyricist

Nicole has been awarded a number of prizes for her work.
Her sculptures can now be found in Canada, the United States and Europe.
