Jocelyn Claire Burke

I practice the art of documenting the spectacular accident, of making unusual connections between disparate ideas and materials, and creating visual portals between inner and outer worlds. I studied Art History (regional identity, visual culture, public art) and Studio Art (printmaking, painting, extended practices) and completed my B.A. at the University of Guelph. As a practicing artist, nature enthusiast and academically published author, I also enjoy writing stories and songs, which I collaborate on with the Orangeville-based art/music collective, the Harmony Rainbow Group. I am pursuing a career in non-profit artist-run community development. I live and work near the Niagara Escarpment north of Toronto.
