18 × 24 | unframed
A perfectly imperfect painting that was intentionally left unfinished when it finally felt honest. Sometimes we don't need to explain everything to the end; sometimes, letting go is an act of love.
UNBECOMING PART 1 marks a new direction in Amélie Vallières’ practice: the culmination of more than six months of research, experimentation, and a growing desire to move beyond the traditional portrait. These works explore the messy, tender, chaotic process of becoming ourselves: the identities we inherit, the ones we outgrow, and the ones we are still learning to inhabit. Part 1 lays the foundation for the larger UNBECOMING collection, with Part 2 to be unveiled in spring 2027.
