MEET ARTIST CLAIRE DRUMMOND

Claire Drummond is a painter, educator and labour organizer from Tio’tia:ke Montreal who recently completed her MFA in Painting and Drawing at NSCAD University. She previously completed an MA in Cultural Studies at McGill University specializing in representations of gender and performance in postwar film. Her formal academic training influences her understanding of feminized experience as a microcosm of broader subjective and ecological concerns, and the ways in which her work grapples with what it means to be a woman and what it means to be human today.

She is the recipient of multiple grants and awards, including the Scotia Scholar’s Award from Research Nova Scotia (2022-2023), the Judith Jane Leidl Graduate Fellowship (2023), the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada Graduate Scholarship (2018), and she was a finalist for the NSCAD University Student Art Award (2023). She has exhibited her work across Canada and is participating in upcoming solo and group exhibitions in her home country and Europe. Her work is held in national and international private collections.
