2023-2024 Humanities Research Fellow
Prof. Catherine Heard
Catherine Heard's studio practice utilizes fine craft as a foil for abject subject matter, delving into contested imagery and primal anxieties of the human psyche. Her current project, Redwork: The Emperor of Atlantis, invites the public to collaborate in the creation of a textile installation that utilizes traditional redwork embroidery techniques to catalogue histories of injustice. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is in the permanent collections of the Canada Council art Bank, The Art Gallery of Hamilton, The Art Gallery of Kamloops and The Robert McLaughlin Gallery. She is an assistant professor at the School of Creative Arts of the University of Windsor. Catherine Heard is represented by Birch Contemport Gallery in Toronto.
