Denise Hawrysio was born in Toronto and currently lives in London, UK. She received her BFA from Queen’s University, Canada, and her MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute. Her trans-disciplinary work includes video, print, artist books, and site-specific installation, and she has exhibited throughout Europe, the United States, and Canada. Denise has been an active member of London’s art scene for many years, founding her own project space in the early 90s, working collectively with many of Britain’s leading artists. She situates her work within borderline situations whereby meaning arises through experience, exposing complex and paradoxical identities, probing perceived and subliminal ideals of socially secure ideologies. She has received fellowships for residencies at the MacDowell Colony, NSCAD University, Banff Centre for the Arts, University of British Columbia, and University of Alberta. Her works are in collections at the Victoria and Albert Museum, Chelsea Art Library, Ya
