Meet the Artist
Shannon Wallace is an artist, writer, and independent scholar. She is an American Canadian with roots on the East Coast. She received a BA in English and Art from the University of Toronto in 2022. She has recently had her poetry/art published online in the engine(idling Journal, the 5-7-5 Journal, #Ranger, The TypeScript Journal, Slate, Bombuss Press, Technophilia: A Transhumanist Zine, STATIC ZINE, and in Curated by Covid: A Digital Gallery. Her artwork has been shown at Rochester Contemporary Art Center, University of Western, Visual Arts Mississauga, Joshua Creek Heritage Art Centre, Part Crowd Art Gallery, Omnibus Gallery, Dignam Gallery and Gallery 1313.
Her artwork mainly uses mixed media, collage, digital editing, and new media formats as she explores and plays with the intersection between the figural and the abstract. The threshold or the edge of where artwork stops being figural and completely becomes abstract is interrogated throughout Wallace’s work.
