Born in Toronto of Swiss parents, Gabrielle de Montmollin is a photographer who uses toys and plastic dolls and figures to create allegories of nature, womanhood and dreams. Both seductive and vaguely sinister, her images are fantasy landscapes that encourage viewers to laugh happily/uncomfortably while trying to reconcile the storytelling elements they contain.
The artist has remarked, "Miss Milligan and La Belle Lucie are the names of solitaire card games and I just like the sound of them; it seemed to me that many of the figures in these pictures were engaged in a dance, about to join in, or maybe just watching one."
