Episode 45: JJ Steeves – Illustrator & Arts Facilitator

 

JJ Steeves is a Nova Scotia-based illustrator, street artist, cartoonist and arts educator.

Treasuring the mundane in order to foster intimacy between art and viewer is especially important as she explores the significance of our daily patterns. Her work is largely influenced by street art, comics and zine culture.

When not making art at her kitchen table, JJ is dedicated to bringing art out of the realm of formal institutions and into a space for anyone of any background by designing and facilitating arts programs for youth and adults alike.

JJ has created arts programs for NSCAD University’s Extended Studies Department, the MacPhee Centre for Creative Learning, and Halifax Public Libraries.
