For more of my collaborative and independent work check out Whitehall + Brucke.
Bonnie Whitehall is an interdisciplinary artist located in Toronto, Canada - the traditional home and land of the Mississaugas of the Credit, Wendat, Haudenousanee and Anishinaabe.
Her creative practice explores relationality and care practices, grief rituals and shifting cosmologies. Whitehall’s work is hybrid and intersects fiction, documentary and experimental forms of art making. Her practice is a combination of process-based, research creation and collaboration. Her work is DIY.
Whitehall’s film work plays with collage, archival footage and home movies to compose her aesthetic style. Her short films have shown in Canada and Europe, including the Istanbul Experimental Film Festival in Turkey, the Visible Evidence XXVIII Conference in Gdansk, Poland and the Made by Women Independent Film Festival in Salzburg, Austria.
