Meghan Price

Meghan Price is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice explores human-Earth relationships through processes of material transformation. With time as a central concept, her work engages distinct materials and their accrual to signal duration, human behaviour and the geologic.

Price primarily employs handweaving on a digital jacquard loom to create works that draw from the visual language of scientific diagrams. By transposing imagery into woven objects, her work privileges an embodied understanding of the physical world and our entanglement within it.

Price's work has been exhibited across Canada and internationally, in venues including the Canadian Cultural Centre (Paris), Powerhouse Museum (Sydney), Fiberspace (Stockholm) and the Center for Craft Creativity and Design (Asheville). She has held residencies at The Banff Centre, the Scottish Sculpture Workshop, the Icelandic Textile Center, The Museum of the Flat Earth (Fogo Island) and Mellösaverken (Mellösa). Her research and creation have been supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, the Société de Développement des Entreprises Culturelles, and the arts councils of Ontario, Quebec and Toronto. Her work is held in private and public collections, including the Canadian contemporary textile collection of Cambridge Art Galleries, as well as numerous corporate collections. She is represented by United Contemporary (Toronto).

Prior to returning to Montreal in 2021, Price taught in the Fibre programs at the Ontario College of Art and Design (Toronto) and Sheridan College (Oakville). She is currently a full-time Lecturer in Fibre and Material Practices at Concordia University, where she first joined the faculty as Artist-in-Residence in 2023.
