Zoe Ann Cardinal Cire (b. 1998, Ponoka, Alberta) is a visual artist born and raised on Treaty 6 territory of central Alberta who brings together material sensibilities from her paternal Métis and maternal Beaver Lake Cree Nation lineages. Her works engage conversations which oscillate between the terrains of paint, beads and textiles, focusing on place and enlivening material associations. Cire holds a Bachelor of Visual Arts from Emily Carr University (Vancouver), and Master of Fine Art from Yale University (USA) where she received the Blair Dickinson Memorial Prize. Her works have been presented in exhibitions at the Native American Cultural Center (New Haven), Burnaby Art Gallery (British Columbia), Seymour Art Gallery (North Vancouver), HOEA Gallery (Gisborne, NZ), David Castillo (Miami) and Franz Kaka (Toronto).
