Cee is a visual artist based in North Vancouver, British Columbia, working primarily in oil and acrylic on canvas. Her practice explores ecological relationships, challenging the human-centred perspective that places humanity apart from, and above, the natural world.
Drawing inspiration from the coastal forests of the Pacific Northwest, Cee creates atmospheric, often surreal paintings that question the boundaries between human and non-human life. Her work considers ecological interdependence and challenges our capacity to imagine a world in which humanity is neither central nor exceptional.
Her creative process begins with walks through coastal forests, where she photographs the intricate forms, textures, and relationships of the understory. Through imagined encounters and altered relationships, she invites viewers to reconsider the human perspective itself and contemplate other ways of existing within the living world.
Cee holds a Painting Certificate from Emily Carr University of Art + Design’s Continuing Studies program. Her evolving practice investigates the possibilities of ecological imagination and the relationships that connect all living things.
