Steph Cloutier

Artist member since 2020
Toronto, Ontario

Steph Cloutier is an artist and maker based in Toronto, Canada. She received her Bachelors of Fine Art with Distinction from OCAD University with a focus on sculpture, installation and textiles. As an interdisciplinary artist, her practice looks at themes of repair as acts of resistance and futility and uses embroidery and paper as her tools. She is currently an artist-in-residence at Harbourfront Centre.

Her thread drawings explore aspects of architecture, history, memory and space. Initially inspired by a trip to Italy, her pieces explore the layers of history in built-up layers of thread. All hand-stitched, her drawings become ethereal, imagined yet familiar cityscapes that play with colour, scale, and repetition.
