Website

Alexandra Bischoff (she/they) is a prairie-born performance artist and writer of settler descent. Her art practice is based on durational performance and installation; labour, precarious living, and the intimacy of archives are some of their primary artistic concerns. Bischoff holds a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art + Design and an MFA from Concordia University. Since late-2022, Bischoff has been fortunate to live on the ancestral, unceded territories of the syilx Okanagan First Nation and is the Long-Term Artist in Residence at the Similkameen Artist Residency (Keremeos, BC).
