BORN IN HAWKESBURY ONTARIO LIVES AND WORKS IN MONTREAL.

ROUGE LEFEBVRE MANIPULATES THE ICONIC IMAGE TO ACHIEVE A VALUE THAT INFUSES RELIGIOUS, SEXUAL AND POLITICAL HIDDEN MEANINGS TO THE ART.SHE USES PEOPLE OF EVERYDAY LIFE.
THE WORKS ARE LIKE PAINTINGS THE MEDIUM IS MIXED MEDIA ;THE BODY IS PAINTED WITH MAKE UP ELEMENTS CUT OUT CRISTAL ARE ASSEMBLED THE CLOTHING IS PAPER SCULPTURE ,SOME PARTS ARE REALISTICALLY PAINTED ON THE CANVAS AND OBJECTS OF THE PAST INCLUDED AND USE OF PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILM.

IN THIS COLLECTION I WANTED TO CREATE A MODERN CHRIST WITH A CONTEMPORARY APPEAL. SO I PAINTED THE FAMOUS PAINTED THE FAMOUS DAVID BOWIE LIGHTNING BOLT LOOK AND ADDED GOLD LEAF TO THE MODEL WHO WAS HAS AN UNCANNY RESSEMBLANCE TO JESUS.
ALL WAS PHOTOGRAPHED IN THE BACKYARD OF THE ARTIST DEMEURE ON A SUMMER DAY A SHORT FILM WAS MADE "ƒCLATS"IS ON YOU TUBE
ROUGE'S ART PLAYS WITH SUBLIMATED DESIRES NOW MADE EXPLICIT AND CAUSES US TO QUESTION WHAT IS SACRED AND WHAT IS NOT SACRED. AND WHY?

I ALWAYS BELIEVE IN THE MULTI FACETTE OF THE INDIVIDUAL THAT HE MUST EMBRACE TRANSORMATION WHILE KEEPING AN AUTHENCITY, HIS SPIRIT WITHIN AND ARTISTIC.
