DESCRIPTION DE L'OEUVRE

Translucide illustre la vocation du Palais en tant que lieu de passage et de rencontre, un lieu d’échange de points de vue et d’interaction des perceptions. Dans la grande verrière, un visage et une main expriment le contact entre les sens et la réflexion. Translucide a été sélectionnée lors du Concours national d’intégration des arts à l’architecture tenu dans le cadre de l’agrandissement du Palais des congrès de Montréal. Il s’agit de l’un des plus grands vitraux figuratifs contemporains en Amérique.

ARTWORK DESCRIPTION

Translucide speaks to the Palais’ vocation as a place where people simultaneously pass through and come together, where points of view are shared and perceptions mingle. Inside the main glass façade, a hand and face evoke the connection between human senses and human thought. This piece was chosen during an arts and architecture competition held as part of the Palais’ expansion project.
