Larissa Tigglers
MEMBER-AT-LARGE
Larissa Tiggelers is a visual artist and Associate Professor in the Department of Visual Arts at the University of Regina, on Treaty 4 land. Tiggelers’ artistic practice explores articulations of care through mindful colour selections, dynamic yet composed forms, and surfaces of softly cumulative gestures. These qualities point to her interest in the unknowability of colour, the limitations of authorship, and quiet expressions of care.
Tiggelers’ work has been exhibited at Norberg Hall (Calgary), Christie Contemporary (Toronto), Erin Stump Projects (Toronto), Galerie D’Este (Montréal), The Bakery (Vancouver), Art Gallery of Alberta (Edmonton), Dunlop Gallery (Regina), 330g (Saskatoon) and Paniki Gallery (Población Batan, Aklan, Philippines). She holds an MFA from the University of Guelph and a BFA from the Alberta College of Art and Design. Her creative work has been supported by artist residency opportunities, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, Ontario Arts Council, Saskatchewan Arts Board, and Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Tiggelers’ works are included in private, corporate and public collections throughout Canada and internationally including the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, Art Gallery of Alberta, Saskatchewan Arts Board, and Global Affairs Canada.
