Original artwork.

In Mountain cut, Jessie Bélisle treats the mountain as a living, emotional terrain. The landscape appears carved into layered bands of color, revealing inner depths and geological rhythms. Flowing lines, highlighted by light contours, lead the eye through successive planes, suggesting time, transformation, and the memory held within the land.

The bold palette — deep reds, vibrant greens, warm ochres, purples, and dark tones — creates a striking balance between raw strength and poetic sensitivity. The central mountain, both powerful and fractured, becomes a symbol of resilience, embracing its cuts and openings as sources of expression. True to the artist’s practice, the work merges movement, color, and emotion into a contemplative and deeply human vision.
