Creative Gros Morne is thrilled to conclude this year artist in residency program 2023 with the artist Megan Samms from Codroy Valley. Megan will be in Gros Morne area from November 27 to January 1, 2024. Stay tune for upcoming workshop or potential makers nights!!!

Megan Samms (she/they) is an L’nu and Nlaka’pamux interdisciplinary artist who works in a range of mediums including textile, natural dyes and inks, paint, words, and photo; Megan is also a regenerative, community based farmer, and sustainability, in all ways, informs their making too. Megan has shared work in exhibitions, residences, videos and interviews, talks, panels, books, and artful publications.
Megan lives in their home community and one of her two traditional territories and is informed by their very specific place in the world and how she fits in and around it. Megan looks at decolonial values, love and care, at multiplicity and contrastingly, at fragmentation. They are interested in the sense of inter-dependance and capability that comes from this way of working and looking. Megan collaborates often, thinks and works intergenerationally, and considers working together with place and people integral to creative process and makings. Megan is driven to practice as an artist to learn more, to unearth specifics about place and identity in a meaningful way, to visit with past and present people.
