La ligne bleue

Sophie Asselin is a French Canadian self-taught artist based in Montreal. With a background in visual arts and graphic design, she launched a successful photography career before turning to abstract art in 2018 to explore a more intimate and personal visual language. By late 2021, her work reached a pivotal moment as she mastered color and embraced a more distinctive style, with oil paint playing a central role in this transformation. This medium perfectly complements her experimental approach, opening new creative pathways.

In just a few years, Sophie’s work has gained recognition across North America and beyond, becoming part of private collections in Canada, the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia. In June 2022, she held her first solo gallery exhibition at Atelier Galerie 2112 in Montreal. That same year, her work was featured in Friend of the Artist (FOA) Volume 15, a biannual publication showcasing emerging artists worldwide. Among her collectors are the Colombian ambassador to Canada and several prominent Quebec figures.
