Price & Thomas Art CoLab

Price & Thomas Art CoLab Artistic collaborations, ponderings and insights into the art world by Jill Price & Frances Thomas. their respective art practices.

is a playful and experimental collaboration between two arts professionals educated in gallery culture, museology, curating, arts education and contemporary art. Both living in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), Jill Price and Frances Thomas have paired up to explore how working together might push their practices into new areas of investigation as well as to share the wonderful discoveri

es they make while researching and reading theoretical and historical texts. Inspired by all the women artists that have come before them, Price & Thomas are also working to explore how art, in all of its manifestations, can find its way into unexpected spaces and places. Foundationally connected by their individual childhood experiences with land, the collaboration arose out of Price & Thomas meeting every week over eggs, hash browns, coffee and chocolate milk to discuss the ins and outs of the art world(s). While considering the many issues of what it means to be makers in today's world, Price & Thomas began to speculate on how to expand their respective art practices to arrive at innovative work and projects for their existing and new audiences. Be sure to follow us to keep up on what we are collectively reading, thinking, making and scheming. 😜

Price, born in Toronto, Ontario, is a Canadian artist researching new materialism. Recently completing an MFA from OCADU, she works at the intersection of drawing, sculpture and performance while investigating UN/making as a creative act within her PhD studies at Queen's University. To read more about Price's practice and exhibition history visit jillpricestudios.ca. Thomas, born in Parry Sound, Ontario, is a Canadian artist not interested in the straight translation of anything. Working at the intersections of the imagined and the real through abstraction, she achieved an MFA from York U. Drawn to the mystical, she describes her process as an "inventory that I build or make, or unmake and remake, just like a life, bits and pieces that can only ever be bits and pieces".

A big thank you to Patricia Lee Watts for selecting my work Food for Thought, 2024 to promote 's participation at the 2024 Soil Conference in Florence in two weeks. Another big thank you to Katie Green for lending me her amazing letterpress to execute the work. Created on a recycled linen napkin, I buried the work in soil near my studio to see how contaminates or microbes might effect the textile or the word soil, as what we do to the land, makes it onto our dinner plates, an in turn our bodies. A big thank you must also go to the lovely and talented for willing digging it out of the ground and bringing it to Italy for me while vising me in Venezia.
