Elizabeth Milton is a mixed European settler artist of Croatian and British ancestry who lives on the unceded territories of the xwməθkwəy̓ əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples in Vancouver, BC. Her media and performance-based practice utilizes absurdist character-play and hyperbolic expressivity to explore identity, affect and the radical potential of comedic performativity. Involving a range of participants, from family members to opera singers, her interdisciplinary and collaborative works aim to critically investigate the visual language and power structures of amateur spectacle. Her work has been exhibited and performed across Canada, the United States and Europe. She is a faculty member in the Department of Fine Arts at Langara College where she instructs studio courses in Media and Performance.
