Raymonde April

Raymonde April OC (born 23 June 1953) is a Canadian contemporary artist, photographer and academic.

Her extensive series depict everyday life, transforming the average experiences into tremendous images.

[1] Eduardo Ralickas argues April's work is articulated around a scene between near and far, appearance and disappearance, making distance a key factor in mapping the territory of the symbolic and the imaginary.

[5] In 1991, she had a solo show Raymonde April: embrace everything (presented as part of the Mois de la Photo à Montréal), at the Leonard & Bina Ellen Art Gallery, Concordia University.

[6] In 2022, Traversée (151 photographs by April), was shown at 1700 La Poste art center, Montreal.
