About The Workshop

Join award-winning artist, curator and writer, Anique Jordan, for an intimate workshop where participants will learn about the art of giving and receiving constructive, supportive critique and feedback, followed by group critique of participant work.

This workshop will take place in-person at Nia Centre For the Arts, and feature printed participant photography, with artists being permitted to receive feedback on 1 – 5 works.

Participants will be asked to arrive with their works printed in advance, and will be reimbursed for up to $50 of associated printing and mounting costs. Participants who do not attend the workshop will not be edible for reimbursement of printing and mounting costs.

Space is limited, and will be prioritized for emerging Black / Afro Diasporic photographers.

I’m really interested in critique environments where artists can feel comfortable coming with messy, unfinished, raw work (if they choose) and can really get into a conversation about how to get it to the place they are hoping for.

About Anique Jordan

Anique Jordan is an artist, writer and curator who looks to answer the question of possibility in everything she creates. As an artist, Anique works in photography, sculpture and performance often employing the theory of hauntology to challenge historical or dominant narratives and creating, what she calls, impossible images. Recently, she has been thinking about time, the surreal, and the rejection of the singular and linear ways of thinking or being in the world. Anique has lectured on her artistic and community engaged curatorial practice as a 2017 Canada Seminar speaker at Harvard University and in numerous institutions across the Americas. In 2017 she co-curated the exhibition Every. Now. Then: Reframing Nationhood at the Art Gallery of Ontario. As an artist, she has exhibited in galleries such as Art Gallery of Ontario, Art Gallery of York University (AGYU), Art Gallery of Guelph, Doris McCarthy Gallery, German Gallery, Art Gallery of Windsor, Gallery 44, and Y+ Contemporary. She has received numerous awards, grants and fellowships and in 2017 was awarded the Toronto Arts Foundation Emerging Artist of the Year award. Anique is currently completing her MFA in Photography at Rhode Island School of Design
