About the Artist
KIRA CHANKASINGH
Born in Yellowknife to immigrant parents from Trinidad & Tobago, Queer multimedia artist, Kira Chankasingh currently resides in Edmonton, Alberta. Within her multiplicities of identity, Kira explores how the mystery of different environments impact culture and people, especially during times of isolation. Kira's imagery serves as a vessel of remembrance and forgetfulness. By re-visiting family photos she creates a vortex of ancestral experience. Combining the past, while painting in the present, she creates her own relationship to the subject, thus creating a new story to reflect on for the future. Although she considers herself a multidisciplinary artist Kira's paintings reveal her passion for the human soul.
