Artist Bio

Alex Balkam is a visual and media artist based out of So'qmkiknuk, Mi'kma'ki (Shelburne, NS). A
member of Wasoqopa'q First Nation, his work integrates research in Mi'kmaw oral, material and
visual culture within the context of a contemporary artistic practice. His work places particular
emphasis on the significance of waisisk / animals in the development of visual and material culture.
Working primarily in oil painting, sculpture, brain-tanning, trail cameras and analogue film, his
practice engages themes of place, being and nature. His short films have been featured at major
festivals across Canada, and his artwork has been selected for inclusion in the Nova Scotia Art Bank
collection. Received a Bachelor of Fine Arts at Emily Carr University of Art and Design in
Vancouver, British Columbia in 2022.
