Martine Côté

Born in Quebec City, Canada, in 1981.

Martine seeks to capture the understated beauty revealed in the light of everyday life. Her photographs evoke a sense of calm and serenity.

After studying saxophone at the Conservatoire de musique de Québec, she earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration in Canada and France, which opened her up to the world of communication and allowed her to develop a critical eye for image and message. Photography is a natural extension of her journey.

Throughout her practice, she has developed a rigorous approach to photography, inspired by the Quebec winter landscapes of her childhood as well as by the works of artists who fascinate her: Rita Letendre, Jean-Paul Lemieux, Bernd and Hilla Becher.

Alongside her career as an artistic photographer, she is committed to promoting the talent of craftspeople and artists by serving on the boards of non-profit organizations.

Martine lives and works in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
