Reiko Inouye is an emerging artist, curator, organizer, and settler guest on the traditional, ancestral and unceded lands of the xwməθkwəy̓ əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. They received their Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University British Columbia, and were nominated for the BMO 1st Art! Competition. In 2020-21, Reiko was the Director of the student-run Hatch Art Gallery (UBC, Vancouver). Their practice often concerns itself with theories of queer world-building, space-making, performativity and movement. Reiko’s most recent research has explored correspondence, lineages, personal ephemera and temporality as it relates to identity formation.
