Ali Brown is a visual artist living and working in Mississauga, Ontario. A OCAD University BFA Drawing & Painting graduate, Ali explores the ambivalence of nostalgia through collaboration with personal archives- questioning what we hold onto, what slips away, and how the resurfacing of these narratives inform and transform identity. Beyond her studio practice, Brown is actively involved with arts education and disability arts communities within and beyond the university, receiving the Diversity & Equity Excellence student award for her ongoing advocacy.
