Pol Turgeon – Station to Station

September 5 – November 1, 2026 
Artist Reception: Saturday, October 31, 2:00pm – 4:00pm
Galleries A, B, C, & The Jill Dyall Community Gallery

Station Gallery is thrilled to welcome Montreal super-creative Pol Turgeon as he presents a selection of his personal artwork in a solo exhibition.

Pol’s award-winning illustrations have been widely acclaimed for his completely unique and imaginative approach.  Gallery visitors can be prepared to encounter exquisite expressions of ideas that will challenge the viewer to stretch their imagination.

“Imagine stepping into another world, a parallel universe that is part dream, part fantasy. Imagine a dark place where all the manifestations of your unconscious that haunt your sleep suddenly take shape, embodied through images that are sometimes playful, often unsettling, and occasionally downright disturbing.

Imagine a dreamlike ceremony that guides you along as if in a procession, moving from station to station, with hymns in foreign tongue playing in the background. Notice, during this parade, the scent of incense that rises to your nose and permeates your psyche. And pay attention to your heartbeat, which sometimes quickens as your gaze meets a particularly evocative piece. This is what you are invited to experience here. And if you emerge feeling a bit shaken and slightly disoriented, as when waking from a particularly unsettling dream, the artist will consider that he has achieved his goal. Have a good waking dream.”

“Every new creation is at the same time a strange discovery of a piece that already exists. I don’t create these portraitures but simply reveal them and in turn every new apparition transforms me.“
