included in the University of Calgary Millenium Portfolio, 1999 as alumna; represented by Herringer Kiss Gallery, Calgary and Artpowher Contemporary, Zurich

Laurel Johannesson studied at the University of Calgary, the University of Saskatchewan, and the Royal College of Art in London. She has twice been a visiting artist and scholar at the American Academy in Rome and has participated in artist residencies in Iceland, Greece, and the South of France. A fellow of the Bau Institute (Italy), she has had the rare opportunity to conduct research at the Vatican Library and was an invited resident at Palazzo Monti in Brescia, Italy.

Working across photography, experimental film, painting, digital collage, and moving images, Laurel creates evocative works that explore the perception of time and space. Often set in site-specific, water-based environments, her images reveal uncanny juxtapositions between body and nature, realism and dream. Her research also engages deeply with the beach as a liminal or temporal zone, and she has investigated the intersections between art and technology through generative and interactive processes.

Her work has been exhibited internationally in countries including Switzerland, Italy, Greece, England, France, India, Iceland, Portugal, Egypt, Argentina, Germany, Japan, Chile, Taiwan, Russia, the United States, and Canada. Recent exhibitions include the Athens Digital Arts Festival | Techno(s)cene in Greece and Photo Basel in Switzerland.

Laurel’s work is held in numerous public and private collections, including the Government of Canada’s Department of Foreign Affairs, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, the Glenbow Museum, Palazzo Monti, Suncor Energy, Encana Corporation, Cenovus Energy, and the Royal College of Art. She has been featured in L’oeil de la Photographie / The Eye of Photography, Designboom, CLOT Magazine, Whitehot Magazine of Contemporary Art, The Art Talk Magazine, Elle Canada, and others.

She is a Professor at the Alberta University of the Arts, where her research into temporality, the moving image, interactivity, and generative art has been presented at peer-reviewed conferences in Italy in Rome, Florence, Milan, and Ravenna, as well as London (University of Greenwich), and Los Angeles (UCLA). Her work has been supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, Polaroid, and the Alberta University of the Arts.

Heather Leier is an Associate Professor in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of Calgary. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and she has curated numerous contemporary art projects. Leier’s practice examines embodied trauma and the social narratives that shape identity, belonging, endurance, and survival. Working across printmaking, textiles, printed ephemera, and site-responsive installation, she investigates how bodies navigate violence within social and institutional structures. Grounded in printmaking as a relational practice of repetition, exchange, and collective learning, her work foregrounds care, reciprocity, and resilience as strategies for sustaining communities.
