Artist Spotlight: Jean Paul Langlois

A selection of work by Métis artist Jean Paul Langlois from Vancouver Island, currently based in East Vancouver. Informed by pop and pulp culture, particularly Westerns, 70s sci-fi and Saturday morning cartoons, Langlois plays with ultra-saturated colours and motifs as a way of grappling with a sense of alienation from his own cultural backgrounds — both indigenous and settler.

See more images below or on display at the Vancouver Art Gallery AR&S Showroom. His show “Return to Spirit River: Or Meeting the In Laws as told by my Mother” will be on display until November 9.
