Kiyooka Ohe Arts Centre
Location: 244034 Horizon View Rd SW
Date: June 14, 2026, 2 – 4 pm
Please join us at the Kiyooka Ohe Arts Centre with a special artist talk and Q&A with our current artist-in-residence, Toni Cormier.
Toni Cormier is a visual artist based in Mohkinstis (Calgary, Alberta). Working primarily in painting and sculpture, she explores relationships and social power dynamics through the metaphor of sport fishing. Scenes of play, deception, absurdity, and social roles happen over a backdrop of dream-like landscapes.
Toni Cormier is the artist in residence at KOAC from May 17 – June 30!
Through drawing, painting and field studies, Toni will be working on developing a new series of intimate oil paintings developed from time spent in close observation and relationship with the land.
Cormier graduated with distinction from the Alberta University of the Arts with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Drawing. She exhibited at Herringer Kiss Gallery in Surface, Surface and participated in BUMP’s 2025 Road Works Festival. Calgary Arts Development has generously supported her. Cormier maintains an active role in the Mohkinstis arts community as an artist and arts programmer, including her current position at National accessArts Centre as the 2D Painting/Drawing Faculty.
