BIO
Alexis Bulman is an artist based in Prince Edward Island. Her performance, sculpture, and installation work draws on community and collaboration to explore themes of wonderment, trust, care, and access in public and private spaces. The artist’s investigations are achieved through deep engagements with materials and process. From illuminated floating tents to chopped and fallen lumber, fiberglass amusement park artifacts to sprinkled sidewalk salt and more. Bulman uses materials as sites for sharp and playful intervention, relying on the instincts of her own body to inform her conversations with site-specific places and movement.
She completed her BFA at NSCAD University in 2013 and has exhibited nationally in galleries such as Eyelevel Gallery, NS, The Confederation Centre Art Gallery, PEI, The Robert McLaughlin Gallery, ON and internationally at the Kelvin Gallery, Glasgow School of Art, Scotland, UK.
Most recently Bulman was the artist in residence with the Interrogating Access Residency supported in partnership by OBORO and Spectrum Productions, Montréal, QC. Currently, she is the ClimateSense Artist with the University of Prince Edward Island where she hopes to create community-engaged artwork about Climate Change and Adaptation in PEI through a continued accessibility framework.
