Galerie de l’UQAM



MOMENTA Biennale de l’image and Vidéographe are proud to join forces through a new co-producing partnership.

In The Roman de Remort, or the inhumane, villainous fabliaux of the Ultimate Carnaval (2023), Marion Lessard appropriates the medieval literary model to present the human character of Remort, who feels deeply remorseful for the centuries of harm that has been inflicted upon so-called Nature. Here, the blending of humans and animals is taken to extravagant and absurd new heights through disguises, split personalities, and theatrical reversals and turnarounds. Combining medieval satire with musical comedy, Marion Lessard’s exhibition at the Galerie de l’UQAM will take the form of an immersive work in which gallant language masks and unmasks the exhilarating horror of the possible end of the human world.

Exhibition produced in partnership with Galerie de l’UQAM.
This collective is supported by the MOMENTA x RBC Foundation program.
This artwork is co-produced thanks to a partnership between MOMENTA and Vidéographe.
The exhibition is made possible thanks to the support of the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec.
