Bio
Colin Chudyk is a Montreal-based visual artist working with textiles and ceramics. By pouring liquid clay into fabric forms, he creates mineralized landscape-bodies with an uncanny biological quality – contained by a membrane, shaped by gravity and pressure. His work explores interspecies relationships, toxicity, and extraction through themes of leaking, infection, and rupture. His landscape-bodies record the grotesque beauty of ecological collapse.
Colin has twice been a resident at the European Ceramic Work Centre (EKWC), a summer resident at Archie Bray, and has recently collaborated with the TextielLab/TextielMuseum in the Netherlands. Over the past three years, his studio research has focused on developing a technique of ceramic slip-casting in fabric formwork and machine-knitted molds. His work has been exhibited internationally. Colin holds a Master of Architecture from Yale University.
