New outdoor photography exhibition at Coulée-Verte Park

The Ville de Saint-Lambert is proud to present its third outdoor photo exhibition project at Coulée-Verte Park.

This initiative continues the City’s efforts to promote local artists and their work. The featured artist was selected through a contest launched within the Saint-Lambert community to find a local photographer. The chosen artist, Jake Levin, presents an exhibition focused on birds. It features seven photographs along with an interpretive panel that helps visitors understand the artist’s creative approach.

This series of images reflects the essence of his vision and photographic strategy: capturing images of wild birds in their natural habitat, free from visual distractions. For Jake, birds are living works of art that inhabit every corner of our world.

The Ville de Saint-Lambert is proud to add this project to its cultural initiatives. The project falls under the cultural development agreement between the City and the Ministère de la Culture et des Communications du Québec (MCCQ).

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Jake Levin is an artist specializing in wild bird photography. He has been practicing this art for over twenty years, but it was in 2014, after moving to Québec to pursue his studies, that he chose to dedicate himself fully to this discipline. Born in Washington D.C., USA, he grew up with a strong passion for languages and photography. When he’s not out in the field with his camera, he teaches language and literature in the classroom.

In recent years, he has participated in several photography exhibitions. He won a bronze medal in the “Best Portrait” category of the international Bird Photographer of the Year 2023 competition. His image Landing Break, taken in Percé, was showcased in May 2025 during the Nature exhibition at the Glasgow Gallery of Photography in Scotland. He also received an honorable mention in the Grand Prix de la Photo QuébecOiseaux 2024 competition.
