Artist: Lepine, Sebastien
Sébastien Lépine is a multi-media artist, designer, and artistic director based in Montreal. His creative pursuits span different mediums including poster art, album artwork, movie posters, video projections for live shows, and music video clips. He has been working as an independent artist since graduating from the graphic design program at Université du Quebec à Montreal in 2000.
Lépine’s poster art is characterized by the use of a technique evocative of photomontage: he overlays images and text, creating a striking interplay of transparencies and negative space. A constant stream of music fuels his creative imagination which translates into the vibrant energy found in his poster art.
"12 Semaines" (12 Weeks) is Marc-André Girard's short film released in 2015 and it only lasts thirteen minutes long. The movie depicts Lilly and Francois in a public bathroom stall with their six-year-old daughter Lea, saying goodbye to their twelve-week-old fetus. This beautiful film was available on all Air Canada En Route flights in 2016 under the category "Quebec Gold", and has been one of Vimeo's "Vimeo Staff Picks" choices.
This silkscreen poster was hand-printed by the artist himself and is in excellent condition.
