BIOGRAPHY
Linda Suffidy explores the theme of timelessness in her mixed media art practice. She is fascinated by the glimpses of ancient history that are found in the present day. Fossils, artifacts, and other curiosities are referenced in her tactile work that straddles the space between two and three dimensions.
Originally from Ottawa, Linda spent her formative years in St. Louis, Missouri. She graduated with a Diploma in Painting from Emily Carr College of Art and Design. In 2016, she received the Opus Prize at the Biennial International Miniature Print Exhibition IX. She was a member of the Printermedia Residency Program at Malaspina Printmakers from 2019-2021. Linda lives and works in Vancouver, Canada.
