Artist’s Bio

A native of Montreal, Sylvie Roussel-Janssens has been living in Vancouver's Lower Mainland since graduating from Emily Carr College of Art. Her passion for sculpture led her to explore different materials and techniques over the years. Sylvie chose sculptural installation as a form of expression and favored themes related to History and the environment.
Exploring the possibilities between art and design, Sylvie Roussel-Janssens has now embarked in a new adventure with her light sculptures. With the use of fabric and welded wire, magical shapes and images become abstract pieces, masks, kinetic sculptures or an entire range of native trees in the form of wall pieces.

Artist Sylvie Roussel-Janssens' light sculptures will bring magic to your interior.

Sylvie designs and fabricates each light sculpture. The pieces consist of two layers of polyester fabric that are hand sewn on a welded wire structure. Each welded wire and fabric creation is made by hand.
