Marigold Santos pursues an inter-disciplinary art practice that includes painting, drawing, sculpture, tattoo, and sound. Her work examines notions of heritage, folklore, motherwork, and decolonization. Her paintings, drawings, sculptures, and tattoo work explore self-hood and identity that embraces multiplicity, fragmentation and empowerment, as informed by diasporic experiences. She holds a BFA from the University of Calgary, and an MFA from Concordia University. As a recipient of grants from the Canada Council for the Arts, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, and the Conseil des Arts et des Lettres du Québec, she continues to exhibit widely across Canada and internationally. She is represented by Patel Brown Gallery in Toronto and Norberg Hall in Calgary.
