Lisa MacLean has an MFA in Studio Art and a PhD in Interdisciplinary Studies (Art History, English, and Sociology) from UBC. Liberal Studies, Cultural Theory, Visual Culture, Creative Thinking, Humanities, Studio Art, and Art History are among the courses she has taught in several post-secondary institutions, including UBC, SFU, VIU, and ECUAD. She has exhibited her art work and created installations locally, nationally, and internationally for many years and has been an artist in residence at institutions in Belgium, France, Turkey, and Italy. In addition to teaching and producing her own work, she has curated a range of exhibitions and taken part in many collaborative projects with students, other artists, and the public. Spanning a variety of disciplines including digital media, photography, and mixed media installation, her practice confronts concerns related to cultural and natural history, gender, landscape and the body, architectural space, the environment, and memory.
