Bio
Khadijah Morley (she/her) is a Toronto based artist and educator with a BFA in Drawing and Painting and minor in Printmaking from OCAD University.
Khadijah's work is autobiographical, informed by her lived experience as a Black woman in Canada born of Jamaican immigrants. She creates work from a Black-feminist framework; prioritizing subjectivity as a counter-narrative. Through the process of etching and relief printing, she depicts Afro-surrealist themes where dreams, magic, and reality converge.
She has attended residencies at Banff Centre for the Arts (Banff, AB), Martha Street Studio (Winnipeg, MB), Kala Art Institute (Berkely, CA) In Cahoots (Petaluma,CA), and will be an Artist in Residence at the Mokuhanga Innovation Lab (Japan). Recent grants include the Elizabeth Greenshield Foundation and Canada Arts Council. Her work has been featured on CBC arts.
