Disquiet and unease reverberate in the work of SOPHIE JODOIN. Since 2004, she has worked exclusively in black and white. Her austere, minimalist drawings frequently serve as the starting point for large-scale presentations with collages, paintings, videos and found objects. Recent solo exhibitions include close your eyes at the Richmond Public Art gallery (2012), Small Chronicles of Everyday Violence at the Musée d’art de Joliette (2011), and I felt a cleaving in my mind at Battat Contemporary (2011) in Montreal. Selected group exhibitions include In These Drawings My Hands Are Dreaming… at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (2013), Front by Front at Museum London (2012), and body / no body at Galerie Bertrand Grimont in Paris (2011). She has worked collaboratively on published novels, dramatic works and poetry, and has been awarded a six-month residency in London, England during 2014 by the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec. She lives and works in Montreal.

The Rusty Toque was supported by the Canada Council from 2015-2017

The Rusty Toque would like to acknowledge the sacred land on which we operate. It has been a site of human activity for 15,000 years. This land is the territory of the Huron-Wendat and Petun First Nations, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. The territory was the subject of the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Iroquois Confederacy and Confederacy of the Ojibwe and allied nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. Today, the meeting place of Toronto is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work in the community, on this territory.
