S5E01 A Creative Exploration of Mortality with Dr. Linda Carreiro

Welcome to series five! This series we will be continuing that eclectic mix of topics you’ve come to expect, but we’ll also be introducing some new episode formats as well. 

Our first episode this season is recorded on location in the Visual Arts gallery at the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts. The gallery is a teaching exhibition space that support course work and creative work by Visual Art undergraduate students, with special exhibits by faculty members and community artists.

Linda is an interdisciplinary artist whose work uses text in sculpture and printmaking. Her work has been exhibited across Canada and internationally in solo and group exhibitions.

She has a BFA from the University of Manitoba, an MFA from the University of Alberta, and a PhD from Cardiff School of Art & Design.
