EMBODIMENTS

Jill Price’s EMBODIMENTS are an ongoing body of mixed media collages that visually explore the material connections between humans, non-humans and their surroundings. Started during the first few months of COVID, they are a continuation of Price’s explorations into unmaking as a creative method. Each work is composed of earlier drawings, prints and text that often work to map past personal experiences and emotions in an abstract way. Compartmentalized, severed, layered, contrasting, and at times intersecting, each figure points to the complexity of our day to day existence and the archetypes that may inform or determine the way we move through space or inhabit place. 

Often a visual response to the political, social, economic and racial issues being broadcasted daily over the radio, social media and television, each figure emerged intuitively as a way to offer Price company, comfort and hope while isolated from family and friends.

Jill Price is a multidisciplinary Canadian artist, curator, and art instructor researching New Materialism. Price received her BFA from Western University, and would then go on to earn her MFA in Interdisciplinary Art and Design at OCAD. Working across a plethora of mediums, Price’s work intersects drawing and sculpture, employing elements of nature and memory tied to her childhood spent outdoors in Pickering, ON. Price’s work is both narrative and abstract and serves as an indexical and expressive way for her to map her surroundings, their materiality and the constant state of change in which we attempt to coexist.
