Alain Paiement

Alain Paiement was born in Montreal in 1960 and received his MA from the University of Quebec at Montreal in 1987. He constructs photographs that depict multiple spaces simultaneously - conventional building-scapes that are deconstructed and sewn back together again into a seamless quilt.
His work is in the collections of the Musee National des Beaux-Arts du Quebec, Musee d’art Contemporain de Montreal, and the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography. Paiement has exhibited at the Oakville Galleries, Musee National des Beaux-Arts Quebec, ARCO Madrid, and the Centre Culturel Canadien Paris, France.

In 2004 he was the recipient of a Gold Medal, from Homes and Gardens, Canadian National Magazine awards foundation.
