Vincent Larouche’s paintings stage a confrontation between the self and the act of painting. Each work unfolds through cycles of construction and erasure, where color and form are tested, undone, and rebuilt through a measured, physical process. What begins as analysis turns inward; the surface becomes a site of exposure, a mirror that returns the gaze in altered form. In this space of repetition and deflection, Larouche treats painting as an investigation into perception itself—an attempt to locate meaning within the tensions of making and the persistence of doubt
