Description
Christina Leslie is a Toronto-based artist and independent curator whose lens-based art practice delves into decolonization, identity, migration, marginalization, and her West Indian heritage. Using experimental photography and text, she explores the intersections of history, memory, and race to create thought-provoking visual narratives.
She holds a B.F.A. from OCAD University (2006) and an M.F.A. from the Savannah College of Art and Design (2022). Recently, she served as Interim Assistant Curator at the McMaster Museum of Art in Hamilton and curated their latest collection exhibition THE GREAT UNSEEN (May–Oct 2025).
Leslie has delivered numerous artists talks at major institutions and conferences, including the SPE Conference in Philadelphia (2010), the Position as Desired symposium at the Royal Ontario Museum (2011), and the McMaster Museum of Art (2022, 2023). She was also a featured speaker at the Caribbean Art Meet-Up at the National Gallery West in Jamaica (2025).
