Elisabeth Denis

Élisabeth Denis is a french-canadian interdisciplinary artist who wrote for the Raglan Chronicle, the LOCAL RAG magazine, and presently is a contributing writer for Deeper Japan. As an artist her tools to tell stories usually bifurcate towards filmmaking and literature. She is interested in relational aesthetics, confessional writings, interactive installations, community oriented projects, political and social art. Her method of work often starts with a seed that is present and found in her own life, a concern, or social questions. Detective-like, she then interrogates people to integrate their story or their thoughts to her work. If you take a close look at her past work, you will soon understand that none of the projects would have been possible and viable without the participation of the public offering themselves in a vulnerable and open state of mind. The public always acts as a reflection for her own concerns.
