Miranda Bellamy (she/her) and Amanda Fauteux (she/her) are partners and artistic collaborators who extend the stories of wild plants through site-specific research and experimentation. By listening to plants and responding through interdisciplinary projects, they queer the constructs that separate human beings from non-human beings and make space for the critical revision of human histories. Since their collaborative practice began in 2019 they have attended artist residencies in New York and Vermont, USA, and have exhibited their work in Aotearoa, Canada, and the USA. In 2022 Bellamy and Fauteux will present a solo exhibition at Owens Art Gallery, Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada as well as a commission for Aotearoa Art Fair’s Projects and a new work for The Lightship in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. They live and work between Canada and Aotearoa New Zealand.
