Mitch Mitchell

Mitch Mitchell serves as an Assistant Professor at Concordia University specializing in Print Media, where he explores familial histories through the lenses of labour, industry, trade, and waste using interdisciplinary artistic approaches.

His academic credentials include:

• MFA (Fine Art) from the University of Alberta (2009)
• BFA (Fine Art) from Illinois State University (2001)
• AAS (Science and Fine Art) from Benedictine University (1998)

Mitchell's creative practice integrates engineered paper, printing performances, and industrial residue to produce graphic objects and sculptural installations. His methodology examines how labour and industrial processes shape identity and historical narratives, often incorporating material transformations like rust and inflation systems as conceptual elements.

He has received multiple national and international awards with significant exhibition history, including representing Canada at the Printmaking Biennial in Douru, Portugal (2010, 2012) and the Contemporary Canadian Print Exhibition at Chongqing National Gallery, China. His works reside in major collections such as the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, and Serrelves Contemporary Museum of Art in Portugal.
