About the Speaker
Jenine Marsh (b. 1984, Calgary AB Canada) is an artist who uses sculpture and installation to explore themes of agency, mortality and value. Coins as well as other paraphernalia of exchange and contact, such as casts of hands, purses and flowers, are manipulated through serialized processes of destruction and transformation to cultivate illicit and intimate responses to the shared conditions of end-stage capitalism.
Marsh has exhibited her sculptural and installation work in Canadian galleries such as Cooper Cole, The Goldfarb Art Gallery, and Franz Kaka, Toronto; Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery, Vancouver; Joe Project and Centre CLARK, Montreal. She has also exhibited in international galleries including Ensemble, New York; Prairie, Chicago; Ashley, Berlin; Gianni Manhattan, Vienna; Union Pacific, London; Night Gallery, Los Angeles; Palais de Tokyo, Paris, OSL Contemporary, Oslo; Entrée Gallery, Bergen, and Lulu, Mexico City. She has served as artist in residence at the Banff Centre for the Arts, at AiR Bergen at USF Verftet, Bergen; La Datcha, Berlin; Rupert, Vilnius; and Vermont Studio Center, Johnson. She received her BFA from the Alberta University of the Arts in 2007 and her MFA from the University of Guelph in 2013. Marsh lives and works in Toronto, Canada.
The Sculpture Talk lecture series invites contemporary artists to York University to share and discuss recent projects, working methodologies, and materialities. These talks are free of charge and open to all. Presented by the Department of Visual Arts and Art History in the School of the Arts, Media, Performance & Design and generously sponsored by the LL Odette Foundation.
