ANGELENE HUMPHREY
THE ARTIST
Angelene Humphrey was born in 1983 in downtown Toronto. She graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting from Ontario College of Art and Design University. Since graduation she has worked as an artist on film and television sets, and as a teacher and mentor, administering numerous arts and crafts programs for inner city youth. She has also taught drawing and painting in Sudbury, in the visual arts program at Cambrian College and privately at Watercrow Studio. She then decided to pursue teaching and graduated from Nipissing University in April of 2024 with a Bachelor of Education. Humphrey moved to Sudbury in 2015 with her growing family, and found a true love for the north. After almost nine years in Sudbury, she relocated to the Eastern shores of Canada and now resides with her family in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Her paintings have been featured in solo and group shows across the country, and internationally in Naples, Florida and London, England. She exhibited a powerful collection of monochromatic, ultramarine blue portraits entitled "A Geography of Grief-Love" at the McEwen School of Architecture in 2020. She was featured in the Power Up Project in the Up Here! Festival 2020 with an imaginative and mythical power box transformation that featured two of her daughters (one riding a giant pike) and a dazzling sunken treasure box at the bottom of an ocean. Humphrey’s collection of work for Nuit Blanche 2024 is a nod to Pop Art and the visual impact of repetition, as she displays, for the first time, three self-portraits that represent childhood bliss and our yearning to capture that joy, again and again and again throughout our lives. Her collages reflect the many differing challenges of the current political, economic, geographic and social climate. When we close our eyes, she reminds us to feel our inner child deeply, and choose to find bliss again, amongst the chaos.
