Cassidy Luteijn is a 25-year-old artist who lives and works on the unceded territory of the Matsqui and Sumas First Nations (Abbotsford, BC). She graduated with a BFA in Visual Arts with honours from the University of Victoria in 2020.

Luteijn is an interdisciplinary artist whose primary work strikes a balance between painting and sculpture. She is interested in pushing the conventional confines of painting and explores this through work that takes on its own presence in the gallery in a sculptural way.

Her work invites the viewer to consider various aspects such as the purity of shape and form due to its reductive nature. Inspired by artists such as Angela De La Cruz and Tammi Campbell, her work emphasizes a consideration of colour and embodies formalist undertones.

Her studies in both art history and psychology factor into the conceptual themes of her work where she explores human experience. She is currently questioning ideas related to theory of mind and how the viewers’ interactions with the work relate to the gallery experience. She orchestrates her work with an eye for design and brings it to fruition with the heart of a painter.
