Caitlin ffrench (b. 1984, Victoria BC) is an artist, writer, and educator living on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations (Vancouver, Canada). ffrench works with land based materials finding connection between land and the body, most significantly her body experiencing Multiple Sclerosis paralleling climate change. ffrench photographs sites impacted by climate change using film and digital processes and then translates these into digital weavings using old and new technologies. She then uses ochre pigments gathered from these sites to finish her work or to perform rituals to the land. ffrench’s 2025 solo exhibition Our Bodies are Brief (Alberta University of the Arts) included research from her 2024 residency and research trip to Iceland funded by the Audain Foundation and the Canada Council for the Arts. She has upcoming shows this autumn at the Campbell River Art Gallery and the Lake Country Art Gallery. ffrench co-authored the paper Glacier for President: Legal Innovation through Artistic Intervention alongside her Snæfellsjökul fyrir forseta colleagues, and presented it to the MOTH Festival of Ideas at NYU Law in March 2025. She is currently coauthoring another paper with this group for the Confluence of European Water Bodies (2026).
