Jill Stanton is an Edmonton-based artist who uses the language of comics and graphic narrative to examine themes of dreams, nature, technology and the future. Her work spans various scales—from smaller drawings in graphic novels and comic books, to exploring pattern and environment in large-scale murals and transitory public pieces. Jill's work has been featured in Manning Hall at the Art Gallery of Alberta, the 2015 Alberta Biennial of Contemporary Art, the 2015 Sled Island Music Festival in Calgary, and various private mural commissions. She was shortlisted for the 2015 Eldon & Anne Foote Visual Arts Prize. Currently, Jill is working on a long-form graphic novel, as well as pursuing research into themes of futurism, utopia/dystopia, and technology as seen from an artist/female/outsider's point of view, for upcoming 2016 solo exhibitions.
