Like an echo in time, Jos\u00e9e Hurteau let herself be impregnated with the story of the dancer, creator, and teacher, Fernand Nault. In her own way, she wishes to bring forward the diversity of subjects and themes addressed by the choreographer, which are still and always relevant.<\/p>

My meeting with Fernand Nault<\/strong><\/p>

It is by a unique coincidence that I met Fernand Nault, an unexpected meeting made possible throughout the eyes and passion of Andr\u00e9 Laprise, Trustee of the FCFN<\/strong>. Also, via the enthusiastic stories and accurate words of dance historian, Marie Beaulieu.<\/p>

Neophyte in classical dance, I was simply seduced by the life, the achievements and the time period of this great man. What charmed me the most, in addition to his choreographies, was his patience as a teacher with young participants in The Nutcracker<\/em>, his great concern to highlight each dancer. Fernand Nault’s undeniable contribution to male dancing and deconstruction of certain stereotypes.<\/p>

And, like me, his creative process is driven by the music.<\/p>

Jos\u00e9e Hurteau, artistic approach<\/strong><\/p>

Painter without paint, Jos\u00e9e Hurteau expresses herself with wool that she felts and stitches.<\/p>

Felt is a non-woven textile, called wool-wicking, created by rubbing wool with hot water and soap. This long, very physical process allows the artist to take a step back throughout the creation of his artwork. Accompanied by a story, each work is a voice that celebrates, denounces, underlines. A work can easily represent 60 hours of creation.<\/p>

\u201cMy way of using felted wool is different from what is usually done. In the past I made jewelry, scarves and even clothes, but my need to say things was too strong. So, as I love textiles, I created a process that allows me to create paintings in felted wool. Over the years, I discover more and more different facets and materials that take me on a journey through the transformation of wool\u201d.<\/p>
