Autor/-in: Shea Proulx

Shea Proulx spent her twenties going to forest-raves, living with a lot of strange people, and becoming over-educated at Emily Carr and UBC. Immediately after graduating with an MFA she discovered that she was totally pregnant. Juggling motherhood and artistic pursuits proved easier in Calgary, with the help of her mother, a fellow writer who really "gets" it. Her work is a nerdy trip, where memories and observations co-mingle to form sweet psychedelic spaces, and visual narratives steal the show. ABC Monstrosity is Shea's second published book, following her visual meditation on motherhood and creating art, Alice at Naptime. There are very tidy-looking pictures of Shea's studio on her website: www. sheaproulx. com.
