Talk: Deborah Edmeades

Thursday, October 11, 1 p.m.
School for the Contemporary Arts Visual Art Studios
Suite #330 611 Alexander Street

Please join us for FREE talk by artist and SCA MFA alumni, Deborah Edmeades.

Deborah Edmeades currently lives in Vancouver. Her work has been focused through a practice of performance that has continued at times outside of an artistic or academic context and into therapeutic and esoteric experiments. Recent interests include the histories of western mystical and esoteric practice and thought, their intertwinement with the history of the sciences and philosophical discourse and their somewhat embarrassing contemporary manifestation in the New Age. Thankfully, embarrassment for Edmeades has been a long-time indicator of productive content and is often an ingredient of the work, which ranges between performance, the lens, object-making and drawing.

Edmeades work has been seen internationally at places such as the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, UK; Ars Electronica, Austria; Exit Art and Participant Inc. in New York City, USA; Dalhousie University Art Gallery, Halifax, Canada; and the The Jeonju International Film Festival in South Korea. She is a Franklin Furnace grant recipient, was visiting artist and guest lecturer of performance art at the University of Texas at Austin in 2000 and completed an MFA at 間眅埶AV in Vancouver in 2014.
