After contemplating the beautiful old architecture of Quebec City one day, Ginette Mailloux is inspired to pursue a creative journey. Already engaged with motherhood, she enrolls as a part time student in a fine art program which she complements with a variety of related workshops. Becoming a member of Montreal’s art most notable art organizations allows her to participate in group shows, and win a few awards which includes the opportunity to show her work in New York City. After six years of attending classes she acquires her BFA. But her plan to become a working artist gets challenged by the birth a third child, followed by a relocation to Mexico City. Hence, sharing an hotel room with a toddler for four months, brings unexpected changes to her studio practice. Restricted by time and lack of space, she begins to create small random collages with whatever she finds at hand. Once she is able to return to canvas and paint, she discovers that it no longer has the same appeal. Soon after, a relocation to the suburb of Houston brings on another unexpected change. One day after a storm, she finds at her doorstep, a newspaper that has been more beautifully sculpted by nature than any human hand could have ever achieved. Taken by the object, she sets out to share its intricate details. Hence began the nearly three decade journey known as “Endless Effects of One Lost Cause”.
