Olivia de Fleuriot Perry is a multidisciplinary artist based on the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, as well as the traditional territory of the Huron-Wendat and Haudenosaunee peoples. She earned her MFA from Emily Carr University in 2019, supported by a SSHRC Canada Graduate Scholarship, and has exhibited nationally and internationally, including at the 2023 Fraser Valley Biennial, The Reach Gallery Museum, Abbotsford, BC, in 2023; Cartography of Care, Spilt Milk Gallery, Edinburgh, UK, in 2022; and was published in Issue 3 of MILKED Magazine, Baltimore, MD, USA, in 2021. de Fleuriot Perry primarily works with textiles, performance, photography, and painting.

de Fleuriot Perry's latest paintings explore the intersection of landscape and abstraction through expressive mark-making and layered washes of paint. Her process—often physical and immersive—combines photography, drawing, and painting to fragment and reinterpret topography into colour, texture, and light, reflecting a deeply embodied and cyclical practice of care and observation. By taking photographs of exact locations across different seasons and painting the same photos over and over again, de Fleuriot Perry’s method is a cathartic collecting of images achieved through repetition.
