An artist passionate about movement

Nicole Taillon is the author of several monumental private and public installations across Canada, the United States and Europe, as well her collaboration with Cirque du Soleil.You can admire sculptures by Nicole Taillon in Old Quebec, Le Grand Bienvenue (a work representing a king’s fool was removed from its usual location, in front of the Caisse Desjardins, in 2017), in Magog (along the bike path and pedestrian path, near Cabana Point) and in West Palm Beach, Florida, Le Guerrier Magnifique.

“Nicole Taillon’s sculptures are easily recognizable. Her pieces represent human, animal, or in-between forms, inspired by mythology and astrology. Her bronze creatures move in space with expressive and exaggerated gestures, in a perceptible tension where balance is never acquired. “

“Her favorite material is bronze, but other materials such as stone, quartz or glass are sometimes added to the mix, thus offering textures filled with possibilities. For some time now, the artist has added an element of jewelry to her pieces, with gold and silver plating (she uses, among other things, twenty-four carat gold leaf). This new technique brings both a coloring effect to the sculpture and an additional preciousness that resembles that of a jewel.” “Luxury Magazine, January 2011, Nicole Taillon: Le succès retentissant d’une sculpteure de bronze»  

Nicole Taillon’s sculptures can be found in several public and private collections in Canada, the United States and Europe.
