About the Artist
Jeneen Frei Njootli lives and works in their Vuntut Gwitchin homelands, outside of Old Crow, Yukon. There is an industrial- and photo-adjacent lean in their practice, through which they work with culturally intimate materials that manifest in sculpture, regalia, performance, and sound. They have worked with many mentors and knowledge holders over the years, in addition to holding an MFA from the University of British Columbia and a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art + Design. Frei Njootli’s work has been presented internationally at KADIST (San Francisco), Fonds régional d’art contemporain (France), CCS BARD Hessel Museum (New York), New Museum Triennial (New York), Kunstverein Braunschweig (Germany), Contemporary Art Gallery (Vancouver), and the Vancouver Art Gallery
