Kellen Spencer (he/him) is a visual artist and printmaker based in Sikookotoki (Lethbridge, Alberta). In 2018, Kellen completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Print Media at the Alberta University of the Arts, and was the recipient of the Board of Governors Graduating Student Award. His printed works have been included in solo exhibitions at the Southern Alberta Art Gallery (SAAG) and Casa in Lethbridge as well as numerous group exhibitions in Canada, the United States, and Japan.
Alongside his creative practice Kellen works as a mining surveyor utilizing drones and 3D scanners to generate geo-referenced images and surface models that assist with planning and design. His artworks often reference the sites he works on, and their desolate, industrial tone creates pause to consider memory, place and the environmental impact we have on the land.
Kellen is deeply informed by and indebted to the land on which he works and was born. Sikookotoki sits within Treaty 7 Territory and is home of the Niitsitapi or Blackfoot Confederacy, which includes the Siksika, Kainai and Piikani peoples. He expresses his gratitude for this place and to those who continue to steward it.
