visible - sensible brings together the work of LGBTQ+ people from the Lower-Saint-Laurent, taking a look into a few of the multiple realities that make up our communities. Metaphorical portraiture, everyday spaces, images of loved ones and partners, abstract textures and materials - these are the tools used by the artists to capture experiences, affects, and ideas that resonate with and within their lives. Seeking to highlight the importance of creating spaces to express our plural existences, and bringing forward these diverse experiences, this project also held space for a few convivial meetings between people who are part of the LGBTQ+ communities.
