Peupleraie invites us to explore the soundscape of a community of trees, poplars, in the urban fabric of the Petite-Bourgogne neighborhood and the Lachine Canal, as a metaphor for the “living environment” and the social body. Anyone passing through the South-West neighborhood with an internet-connected device and a pair of headphones can experience the project. Various connectors are available at the HALTE or at the DARE-DARE offices.

Caroline Gagné
Caroline Gagné's artistic proposals attempt to capture the subtle changes that reveal the places she explores, like clues, but without showing them explicitly. She unveils them by developing various devices composed of objects, motion capture, sounds, or raw materials. The resulting works are sensitive interfaces whose poetry lies in the connectivity they establish, orchestrating it with the elements that constitute them, but also with the places they refer to and the people who frequent them.
In 2020, the Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal's national collection acquired her work Le bruit des icebergs (The Sound of Icebergs) for its permanent collection. In 2022, Oboro Editions published Caroline Gagné: Donner corps à l'insaisissable / Embodying the Intangible, a retrospective look at her artistic career.
