Claudia Edwards

Claudia Edwards is a Toronto-based performance artist of Indo-Guyanese and British descent. Conceptually driven, their work explores colonialism, identity and grief, often through the vocabularies of embodiment, absurdism and the queer trickster tradition. Edwards’ practice spans relational performance, experimental dance, photography, video, text and object-making. They have created works for FADO Performance Art Centre, Rhubarb Festival, BUZZCUT (Glasgow), Flux Factory (NYC) and more, and have presented performances and workshops in festivals and galleries across Canada, the US, the UK, and online. Edwards holds a BFA from Concordia University (2016).
