Giroux Gravel explores light, color, space, and material. At the intersection of art, architecture, and perception, she creates immersive experiences that blur the boundaries between the visible and the invisible. She works with glass, mirrors, thread, and fabric, materials she selects for their ability to become sensitive surfaces upon which light reveals and transforms itself. Through them, she investigates chromatic modulation, frequencies, vibrations, and optical effects. Her works, grounded in rhythm, repetition, and resonance, engage the eye, involve the body, and awaken the mind. They invite a meditative wandering in which space vibrates and color breathes.
