About Cherie

Biography

Cherie Moses is a Canadian artist who emigrated from the United States and she currently lives in Vancouver, BC.

She holds an undergraduate degree in English Literature as well as an undergraduate and a graduate degree in visual art. She has taught at what is now known as MacEwan University for over 30 years, introducing courses such as Intermedia and Contemporary Art Issues (early 80’s) into what had been a traditionally oriented curriculum.

Cherie has exhibited internationally in a wide range of media, such as painting, photo-based work, prints, installations, performance art, audio installations and video. Her work can be found in collections throughout the United States and Canada.

She has often dealt with content such as cultural displacement, immigration, gender and prejudice. She has held numerous grants and is included in collections internationally. Her video Say It is in the collection of the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa.

Her videos have been broadcast as well as being included in numerous festivals. She produced audio installations using two languages as dictated by the subject. Her first audio installation, Canciones de las Madres, has been included in the 2010 CD compilation Deep Wireless 7, produced by New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) in Toronto. It was also exhibited at the Museum of Anthropology, University of British Columbia, from 2015 to 2016.

Her other audio installation, OtterWoman Breathing, uses both spoken English as well as Ojibway prose poetry to create the surround sound of three distinct voices. Cherie’s work with audio has become known as a type of archiving of women’s histories and she has presented on this topic in Edmonton in 2009 at Going Public: Cross-disciplinary perspectives on presenting women’s history conference, Royal Alberta Museum. Her work in this area has also been written about in an online journal:

Fung, Amy. “(Re)searching the Unheard: Cherie Moses’ Archive of Lesser Heard Voices”. Ctrl+P: Journal of Contemporary Art. Issue 12, pages 8+9. July, 2008.
