A multidisciplinary artist, Marie-Suzanne Désilets lives and works in Montreal. Her projects take on a variety of forms depending on their intentions, and she takes particular care to establish a rich dialogue with the context of intervention, both physical and human. Her projects include Cartes de connaissances, a poetry collection, correspondence with postmasters and installations in various offices and in an architectural module at the Îles de la Madeleine airport (AdMare, 2021-22). The artist has a background in art history, design and visual arts.
She has been involved with DARE-DARE since the presentation of her master's project in 1999. She was a member of the Board of Directors for several years, serving as President from 2005 to 2007. Highly involved when the Centre moved from its gallery space to a trailer in Square Viger, she was project manager for the Périmètre event, which took place in autumn 2005, marking the beginning of dis/location, and brought together some thirty artists and cultural workers from all disciplines to reflect on art in the public space.
