Michael Eddy

Michael Eddy is a Montreal-based artist and writer who works across various media, including drawing, text, video, sculpture, performance, and installation. His diverse works converge around specific historical and political contexts, such as freedom of speech discourses, the normativity of mass media, and the impact of technological changes on subjectivity. Eddy’s work is characterized by a playful curiosity, which he employs to critically examine different roles and spheres. He acknowledges that personal experience shapes our understanding of knowledge, making it unique to each individual. This perspective often brings his work back to a handmade, personal level. Eddy studied fine arts in Frankfurt and Halifax and has exhibited and published his work across Canada and internationally.
