Marie France Robichaud exhibited her work at Sunbury Shores in 2023. Unfortunately she wasn’t able to participate in the installation or attend the opening as she was having treatments for cancer. See the brochure written for her exhibition at Sunbury Shores. She was longlisted for the Scotiabank photography award very early in her career. She was an amazing young woman who, while undergoingtreatment, created the artist-run photography studio F Stop, based in the Moncton area.
We are thankful we had the opportunity to bring her work to St. Andrews and grateful for her contributions to the photographic arts in New Brunswick and supporting other artists. In memory of her passion we have included the brochure from her 2023 exhibition at Sunbury Shores. Please continue reading for information on the posthumous exhibition in Moncton and grant set up by F Stop Studio in her honour.
