About the artist
Patrick Lavallée
At a time when hard work didn't leave much room for artistic expression, folk art was born out of a desire to give meaning to daily routine. A few years ago, Patrick Lavallée decided to change his life, moving to the Bas-du-Fleuve to devote himself to his passion for sculpture. Also known as “le Gosseux”, Lavallée creates works inspired by tales and legends, blending naiveté and refinement.
You can watch the documentary Le gosseux des possibles (subtitled version) on YouTube.
