OUTAOUAIS
Peintures Sonores
A collaborative partnership with
La Fab sur Mill, Collines-en-musique, and Chelsea Wakefield Studio Tour.
Peintures Sonores is a unique cultural event celebrating the rich artistic heritage of the Outaouais region. The concert was held at La Fab sure Mill on September 27, 2024, and was a multidisciplinary initiative that brought together visual artists of the Chelsea Wakefield Studio Tour and musicians from Collines-en-musique.
These compositions were inspired by the vibrant visual arts presented in the Studio Tour, offering a unique aural interpretation of the artworks on display.
Music by Claude Debussy, John Cage, Gabriel Fauré and Samuel Barber (among others) were performed by 4 musicians, inspired by the paintings, sculptures and photographs of local artists.
The event also marked the launch of the Studio Tour, an ongoing annual event designed to showcase the talent and creativity of artists living in the region.

A 2-part documentary series was shot, directed and edited by local filmmaker Savanna Oliver (Unstoppable Films).
The series features the artists behind the collaboration, Carson Becke and Alisha Reily-Roe, and Julia MacLaine and Chris Hamilton.
At the heart of Peintures Sonores is a convergence of artistic expressions. Two original classical compositions by Carson Becke and Julia MacLaine were performed at the concert in the fall of 2024, specially commissioned for the event.
