BIPOC Artist Residency
2023-24
Black, Indigenous, People(s) of Colour Artist Residency Recipient
🔮 Snack Witch Joni Cheung 🍡 is a grateful, uninvited guest born—and knows she wants to die—on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm, Skwxwú7mesh, Stó:lō, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh peoples. They are a Certified Sculpture Witch with an MFA from Concordia University (2023). As a wicked #magicalgirl ✨ who eats art + makes snacks, they have exhibited and curated shows across Turtle Island. Currently, she is based on the stolen lands of the Kanien’kehá:ka peoples.
Aside from art-making, Joni likes going on dates where they get to wander down grocery store aisles and drink bubble tea 🌈.
