Claude Millette, (1957) born in Saint-Hyacinthe, received his education at the École de sculpture de Saint-Jean-Port-Joli, complemented by apprenticing internships with Robert Poulin and Jordi Bonet. His works have been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions and are in the collections of, among others, the Musée d’Art Contemporain de Montréal, the Musée d’Art de Joliette, and the Musée du Bas-Saint-Laurent. Among the 20 works of public art that he has produced is L’amphore cryogénique, created for a commission by the Ville de Pointe-Claire to mark the new millennium. The artwork includes a time capsule.
Claude Millette is, before anything else, a sculpture interested in steel and its variations: painted, stainless, corten… Well-known for his public artwork, he also realized small formats, always non-figurative. Recently, these have taken a playful look. We can associate them to the vegetal or animal world, or to the machinic universe, but they are, before anything else, a reflection on the empty and full, balance and imbalance, movement and static. As a true manipulator of the material, Claude Millette, welds, cuts, bolts, assemble and this very physical work on the metal is intimately linked to his gait.
