JOSIANNE AHERN CHIASSON
SAINT-SIMON, NB.
Originally from Saint-Simon, New Brunswick, she grew up in a colorful and artistic environment. Initially drawn to drawing, she began by making replicas of cartoons and more complex characters, eventually working from photographs. Her artistic journey includes ventures into various disciplines, including theater, media (performance), drawing, painting and photography. For her, World Tree represents the balance between the conscious and the subconscious. What we see and what we are inside. She has taken courses in theater and photography at York University in Toronto, as well as NBCCD's Foundation in Visual Arts program (2016-2017). She has also just completed, in 2025, an art program at George Brown College in Moncton, New Brunswick. As she participated in the 20th edition of FAVA, in 2016, this is a return for her.
