From the Sorbonne to hitchhiking across Canada, from Berkeley to living with the Inuit in Nunavik, metal sculptor and painter VALERIE CHAUSSONNET has drawn inspiration for her artwork from the varied adventures life has offered her. Valerie’s experiences with the Smithsonian Institution preparing a Soviet-American exhibition on Alaska and Siberia stoked her desire to create artwork as a way of better understanding the artifacts she researched.
