ERIC TARDIF

Eric Tardif was born in the Kamouraska region of Northern Quebec, in the French-speaking part of Canada. He studied applied ecology before turning to sculptor. It was during his sculpture courses that he came up with the idea of linking the dimensions of movement and space in the single material of wood.

The innovative nature of his work has earned him several awards in Japan and the United States. His works, Tribute to Audubon (2013) and The Nest (2014) were selected for the Birds in Art exhibition at the Leigh Y. Woodson Museum in Wisconsin and finalists for the prestigious Niche Awards.

For the past few years, Tardif has been designing outdoor aluminum sculptures and highly creative public art projects. He has recently received a monumental sculpture contract for a public school being newly built.
