Jean-François Cantin's is among the first generation of Canadian artist to be involved in video installation and performance. Cantin's video installations and public space’s interventions question the exhibition site as a place where ideas are produced, presented, and perceived. Cantin's productions synthesize natural effects of light and technological-produced imagery in such a way they become poetic phenomena that cause us to question our perceptual relation to space and time. Cantin describes his work as organic-technology ; devices which integrate high technology (video display, robotic) with low technology (natural physical and optical phenomenon). Cantin’s lives and works in the city of Montreal, in the Canadian French province of Québec.
