Jacqueline Morrisseau-Addison.
Jacqueline Morrisseau-Addison (they/she) is a Saulteaux and English interdisciplinary cultural worker based in so-called Vancouver, BC, on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. Born on the traditional lands of the Niisitapi (Blackfoot Confederacy), colonially known as Lethbridge, AB, their family ties are to Keeseekoose First Nation in Treaty 4.
Immersed in the Anishinaabe practice of bīskabiyang (returning to ourselves), Morrisseau-Addison weaves together dreaming, beadwork, textiles, performance, photography and film, and site-responsive installations to nurture processes of repair, consent, kinship and care. Through their work, they seek to create spaces of reflection and intergenerational connection through material and spiritual practice.
Their work has been presented in group exhibitions across Canada, including at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, the Yellowknife Visitors Centre, the Burnaby Art Gallery, the Polygon Gallery, Articule and the Southern Alberta Art Gallery.
Morrisseau-Addison holds a BA from Concordia University and is currently completing their MA at the University of British Columbia.
