Mélanie Paulin
Mélanie Paulin (she/her) is a French Acadian artist exploring textiles, installation and printmaking through themes of environmental care, self-care and motherhood. Inspired by personal introspection, her work emphasizes the value of care and intention, urging a deeper connection to the materials and stories that shape our lives. She is particularly interested in the handmade and recognizing the many ways in which women express their creativity.
A graduate of the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design and the CATAPULT Arts Accelerator program, Mélanie also holds a PhD in environmental microbiology. Since May 2024, she has been developing The Water We Wear, a project exploring the water footprint of the textile industry, supported by the New Brunswick Arts Board and the Canada Council for the Arts. She lives and works in Moncton, New Brunswick, where she balances her artistic practice with her role as a mother.
