Kim Kennedy Austin

Artist Kim Kennedy Austin draws inspiration for her works on paper directly from historical texts and defunct artistic practices. The printed word is often depicted in her work as transcriptions and quotes from a wide range of references. Her exhibition at Malaspina will present new prints inspired by the manhunt of Albert Johnson: The Mat Trapper of Rat River, a mysterious fugitive who was killed by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police near Eagle River in the Yukon on February 17, 1932.
