ARTIST INFORMATION

For almost two decades, Z’otz* Collective has worked out of a shared studio in Toronto. They collaborate on drawings, sculptures, site–specific installations, and animations.They have attended residencies in Croatia and Serbia.

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts commissioned Z’otz* to create a series of ceramic sculptures which are part of their permanent collection. The Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art invited the group to participate in a residency to produce work for a solo exhibition.

In conjunction with Art Windsor-Essex, they lead a series of experimental drawing workshops with migrant agricultural workers, in Leamington, Ontario. They have received grants from the Canada Council for the Arts and the Ontario Arts Council.

Z’otz* Collective has had over 30 solo exhibitions and over 40 group exhibitions in museums, galleries and artist-run centres in Canada, Mexico, USA, Serbia, and China.
