Biography

Linda Carreiro is a Professor at Brock University in the Marilyn Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts, currently serving as the Associate Dean of Fine Performing Arts within the Faculty of Humanities. An interdisciplinary visual artist, Carreiro's work often explores text-based visual art, focusing on the physical manifestations of reading and engagement with language. Her recent projects investigate the connections between movement and reading, termed 'choreogrammatics', where artworks encourage readers to interact with text in dynamic ways, facilitating deeper understanding and sensory engagement with the material. Carreiro's work has been exhibited in multiple solo exhibitions, including at the Center for Books Arts in New York City and various galleries across Canada and internationally. Recognized for her contributions to the field, she has received numerous awards supporting her artistic practice, including grants from the Canada Council for the Arts and the Alberta Foundation for the Arts. Her academic and artistic research intersects material studies, performance studies, literature, and anatomy, demonstrating a unique integration of text and imagery within her artistic outputs.
