Benoît Leroux wishes to bring a bit of magic into an otherwise senseless world. His art, mainly figurative and often symbolic, deals with human matters.

Following the terrible railway tragedy in the city of Lac Mégantic, the artist went to paint the boardwalk of the governors who border the Mégantic lakes. Painting outside on a beautiful sunny day, Benoit met several locals who lived and told him about the tragedy and its aftermath.
