Kirsten McCrea splits her time between co-directing Papirmass and her own career as a multi-disciplinary artist, mural painter, and illustrator. With an eye for bright colours, bold patterns, and the forms of nature, her work in-studio and on the streets has been widely recognized and supported. Named one of the Top 30-Under-30 artists in Canada by Blouin Artinfo, her work has exhibited in Toronto’s AGO, Montreal’s Musée des Beaux Arts, and the Shanghai International Arts Festival, and has appeared in numerous publications, including The Globe and Mail, Canadian Art, and BUST Magazine. http://www.hellokirsten.com
JP King splits his time between co-directing Papirmass and his own career as an interdisciplinary artist, designer, and writer. Having recently completed an MFA at OCAD U, he currently teaches on the subjects of material culture and creative methodologies, and experiments with Risograph printing as Paper Pusher. His work has been generously supported by SSHRC, the Canada Council, and the Banff Centre for the Arts amongst others.
