Charlie Mahoney-Volk (they/them) is a queer non-binary artist from Treaty 1 Territory, so-called “Winnipeg, Manitoba”, and is currently based on the unceded traditional territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil- Waututh Nations, so-called “Vancouver, British Columbia”. They completed their BFA at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, where their practice is centered in photography, printmaking, and bookmaking. Their work explores historical ties to westernized masculine archetypes in relation to queer gender identity. Charlie currently works as a monitor in the Photography Department, as a Research Assistant in the Artists’ Books Collection, and as the Editor-in-Chief at WOO Publication.
