Rowen Dinsmore (b. 1999) is a visual artist, curator and graphic designer with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Honours degree from the University of Saskatchewan (2022). 

 

Using a variety of mediums, including painting, photo and video, Dinsmore explores self-portraiture as a means to investigate identity and the self. By developing layers that abstract and complicate the portrait, her work examines spectatorship, the gaze, and the feminine form. Influenced by social media and art history, she considers what it means to be a woman in the modern era, offering a simultaneous critique and embrace of the female experience in a post-internet world.

 

Her practice — spanning art-making, design, and exhibition curation — is rooted in a love for storytelling and sentimental archiving. Dinsmore's work intends to hold a mirror to her viewer, hoping they might see themselves and their experiences within.​
