Nicole Panneton
Nicole Panneton is an interdisciplinary artist. For her, creation is made freely in the being here now, and a way of thinking and sharing art on a daily basis. It is a living, malleable and moving practice. Panneton graduated in visual arts from Concordia University (Montréal) in 1987. She has participated in solo and group exhibitions in Québec, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, France, Switzerland, Belgium, and Bulgaria. She creates works of art, performances, self-published works and videos in order to relate certain experiences or to give new life to performances.
Percussion is an animated video of great intensity through its images and its short duration. It begins gently and, gradually, a narrative tension builds to lead to the unveiling. A scroll of drawings interspersed with three archival documents, important figures in the history of art. We gradually slide from seduction to motherhood and violence. We end, finally, with a feminist poetic text against misogyny, female violence and patriarchy.
