Jill Price graduated from OCAD University with an IAMD and an MFA, receiving a national SSHRC research grant for her investigations of land as archive. Price currently works as the Curator at Quest Art in the Midland Cultural Centre and teaches part-time at Georgian College and OCAD University. Price often reuses her own works in her practice, enabling her to reduce the excess of personal material, as well as pursue non-traditional means of creating. "Currently confronting my settler past, present and future by considering what it means to consume, create and curate in Canada during a time of deep ecological and social crisis, the world as I knew it has become unsettled and more abstract. Working to undo my personal archive of early paintings and drawings, I am investigating how unmaking can be an interdisciplinary methodology to create change at both a personal and institutional level. Surprising generative, unmaking in the studio involves endless exploration of processes such as erasure, cutting away, tearing, painting over, abstracting, disrupting and reconfiguration."

Hello everyone, This is JIll. I no longer work at Quest Art. Virginia Eichhorn has been the Executive Director / Curator in Midland since December of 2018. Also not at Georgian College or OCAD at the moment, I am currently pursuing my PhD and work as a teaching and research assistant at Queen's University while independently curating across Canada. :)
