Amanda Wood is an interdisciplinary artist working in alternative photography, printmaking, and hand weaving. Based on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations (Vancouver, BC), her materially grounded practice centers on repetition, tactility, and the generative potential of liminal space.

Her work navigates the overlaps between craft, science, and archival practices—drawing from everyday materials and complex, often time-intensive processes to explore states of transformation, slippage, and glitch. The result: woven wall pieces, cyanotypes, screenprints, and lightboxes that reflect a deep sensitivity to what is often overlooked, ephemeral, or discarded.

Amanda is a finalist for the 2025 Salt Spring National Art Prize and recently exhibited at THIS Gallery in Vancouver. Her practice was also featured in a recent interview on CBC’s North by Northwest. She has received multiple Canada Council for the Arts Research and Creation grants, and her work has been featured in The Georgia Straight, Galleries West, and Uppercase Magazine.

Amanda holds a BA from Simon Fraser University and a diploma in textile art from Capilano University. She teaches weaving at her studio, and offers workshops in cyanotype and bookbinding at Malaspina Printmakers.
