A strong artist’s statement, bio, and CV are essential for grant applications, and for sharing and promoting your work. In these clinics, attendees will get personalized feedback and guidance on how to craft and refine these important pieces of writing from artist Joni Cheung. These sessions will help participants learn how to differentiate these elements and effectively communicate your arts practice and experiences while highlighting your accomplishments.
Snack Witch Joni Cheung is a grateful, uninvited guest born—and knows she wants to die—on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm, Skwxwú7mesh, Stó:lō, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh peoples. They are a Certified Sculpture Witch with an MFA from Concordia University (2023). She holds a BFA with Distinction in Visual Art (2018) from the School for the Contemporary Arts at Simon Fraser University. As a wicked #magicalgirl ✨ who eats art and makes snacks, she has exhibited and curated shows, off- and online, across Turtle Island. Currently, they are based on the stolen lands of the Kanien’kehá:ka peoples.
They are a recipient of numerous awards, including the Research and Creation Grant: Canada Council for the Arts and the Dale and Nick Tedeschi Studio Arts Fellowship. She was waitlisted for the SSHRC – Joseph-Armand Bombardier: Canada Graduate Master’s Scholarship.
Aside from art-making, Joni likes wandering down grocery store aisles and drinking bubble tea.
