Katherine Duclos, an artist from Vancouver, creatively employs LEGO bricks to forge abstract modular works that reflect personal memories and experiences during tumultuous times in her life. Her attachment to LEGO stemmed from her young son’s colorful arrangement of bricks, which inspired her to navigate her sensory sensitivities through art. During a significant relocation period, where her family's stability was shaken, Duclos utilized the act of arranging LEGO as a coping mechanism, providing her with structure and emotional regulation amidst uncertainty.
Duclos creates modular compositions from LEGO bricks, reflecting a personal journey of transformation and memory during a chaotic period of upheaval in her life.
Struggling with spatial orientation, Duclos found an alternative approach in LEGO, using it as a medium that accommodates her sensory sensitivities.
The artistic process allows Duclos to create order amidst chaos, particularly vital during the transitional difficulties faced by autistic families.
By arranging painted LEGO bricks, Duclos engages in sensory regulation, transforming her emotional turmoil into colorful, abstract compositions.
