Chelsey Campbell (they/she) is a queer crip artist, educator, and cultural worker. A nonbinary white settler of Scottish descent, Campbell graciously resides as an uninvited guest in amiskwacîwâskahikan (Edmonton) on Treaty 6 Territory. Exploring tender narratives of disability justice, feminized care labor, and crip kinship, their practice intertwines autoethnographic storytelling with community-oriented practices of access, care, and interdependence. Through a combination of printmaking, 3D modeling, installation, and photography, their work seeks to make space for the body in pain, celebrate disabled narratives as complex and whole, and build radical access for community through artistic practice. Chelsey was the Interim Director at the Society of Northern Alberta Print-Artists (SNAP), where they developed new anti-oppression and community-engaged programming.
