Sandra Chevrier - Sandra Chevrier, La Cage Et La Valeur De La Vie. Sandra Chevrier (Canada, 1983) La Cage, Et La Valeur De La Vie, 2016, (/50) Silkscreen in Back-Lit Shadowbox Sandra produces work ranging over vastly fluctuating emotional enigmas and concepts that have set the standard of our modern communication, exposing the limitations of our world; our self-imposed expectations and the cages we have allowed to bar us from the fullness of life’s experience. With work demanding to be dissected beyond its surface value, Chevrier's portraits are quite literally torn between the fantastical heroics and iconography of comic books and the harsher underlying tragedy of oppressed female identity and the exposed superficial illusion it conveys.
