Natalie Hunter

Natalie Hunter

Natalie Hunter is a visual artist from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada working between photography, sculpture, installation, and the moving image. Her work engages with the poetics of time, memory, temporality, chance, perception, and the senses - with an emphasis on embodied experience, perception, materiality, personal memory, and identity. Over the past decade she has combined the immaterial principles of photography - light and time - with the material aspects of sculpture to produce multilayered and immersive photo-based installations on transparent film.

 

She is the recipient of many Canada Council for the Arts Research and Creation Grants, and Ontario Arts Council Visual Artists Creation Project Grants. She has shown her work in public art galleries and artist-run-centres, including: Rodman Hall Arts Centre, Art Gallery of Hamilton, Smokestack Gallery, Hamilton Supercrawl, Hamilton Winterfest, University of Waterloo Art Gallery, Art Gallery of Windsor, Thames Art Gallery, Mississauga Living Arts Centre, Centre 3 for Artistic and Social Practice, Factory Media Centre, Hamilton Artists Inc., Latcham Art Centre, Museum London, Propeller Art Gallery, John B. Aird Gallery, Gallery TPW, G44, University of Manitoba School of Arts Gallery, among others. Her work has been featured in Hamilton Arts and Letters, Femme Art Review, The Gathered Gallery, Other Peoples Pixels blog, Canadian Journal of Culture Studies, and BlackFlash Magazine. She holds an MFA from the University of Waterloo where she is a sessional instructor, and received an Excellence in Online Teaching Award (2017). She lives and works in her home city of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
