Kenzie Housego is a Calgary-based multidisciplinary artist and arts activist who has recently completed a Master of Fine Art specializing in new media at the University of Calgary, Mohkinstsis, in Treaty 7 region southern Alberta. As a multidisciplinary artist, her practice includes fiber, embroidery, new media, and assemblage mediums. The use of technology such as LEDs, Arduino micro-controllers, texting, and screens within her research is symbolic of the virtual realms in which we participate as a society. It’s important to Kenzie that her artwork always offers an invitation for interactivity, encouraging viewers to shift from being passive observers to active co-producers as they engage with the digital media, experience other points of view, and ultimately, form their own individual meanings. Her recent series titled “❤️💔❤️” explores contemporary courtship, romance, technology, and historical signs and signifiers connected to dating and romance. Kenzie has had the opportunity to showcase her art nationally and internationally. Kenzie is the Second Place Winner of the Norval Morrisseau Award for Visual Arts 2022.
