About Me

Picture
Gladys Lou is a Hong Kong-Canadian artist and writer with an HBA in Art & Art History and Psychology in the joint University of Toronto Mississauga and Sheridan College program, with a Certificate in Curatorial Studies. Her practice utilizes experimental media including video, sound, and photography to challenge the boundaries between visual art and performance. Passionate about storytelling, she combines art and writing to visualize emotions and explore the unconscious. Her work revolves around the themes of identity-seeking, mental health, and Existentialism.

Gladys currently works at the Blackwood Gallery and has interned at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC with the Time-Based Media working group. She has participated in residencies at the Art Gallery of Mississauga and Visual Arts Mississauga, and her art has been exhibited at Trinity Square Video, InterAccess, Workman Arts, and published in PhotoED Magazine and Broken Pencil Magazine. Her critical writing has been featured in Pleasure Dome’s eBook. Gladys was awarded a Fulbright scholarship with a placement at the University of Washington, where she had studied Digital Art and Experimental Media.  She was the winner of the 27th Annual Mississauga Arts Awards in the Multimedia Arts (Emerging) category.​
