Chloe Lundrigan (b.2001) is an artist and folklorist of Irish, Welsh, and English ancestry raised as a grateful guest along the tidal mudflats of Siknikt, Mi’kma’ki (Sackville/Tantramar, New Brunswick) who studies placemaking. Their sculptural and community-based practice is slow, and tangly. It grows from conversations with strangers, semiotically-loaded Atlantic Canadian objects, reflection on cultural inheritances, careful archival research, and a lot of birdwatching. They believe in the everyday magic of vernacular traditions. 

​

Lundrigan’s intertwined creative, public programming, and academic work has been shared in Atlantic Canada, Albuquerque, U.S.A., and Tartu, Estonia. They’ve spent the last few years living in St. John’s, where they founded LAIR! – an archival training residency for artists of all kinds in the MUN Folklore and Language Archives.
