Une ligne horizontale transpercée par un regard serpenté suivant un mouvement vertical d’un levé du soleil, une envie sincère pour de nouveaux horizons, à la recherche du bien être et a la connaissance de l'être, éliminer parfois le malaise du manque de savoir vis a vis a notre propre existence en quête de l'Autre , parler, partager, communiquer avec des esprit créatifs, profiter tout simplement de cette source d’énergie qui est l'humain, tell’ est l’essence essentiel de ma propre volonté.

Gillian Crawford is a self-described creative and grief walker of Métis and settler ancestry, living on Treaty One Territory. She is the creator of The Connection Desk, a small participatory public art installation in Winnipeg’s North End that explores grief and invites meaningful engagement.

Her eclectic and ever-evolving practice spans multiple mediums including poetry, photography, and installation. Her work is deeply rooted in the landscapes of home, exploring identity and uncovering the sacred in everyday life. Since the death of her father in 2024, Crawford has been transmuting a grief larger than her physical form into art, connection, and community—meeting herself anew along the way and discovering what each evolving self has to offer the world.

I am an Indigenous artist whose work is rooted in storytelling, healing, and connection to spirit. Through painting, I explore the relationship between land, identity, and intergenerational knowledge. My art reflects both personal experience and the teachings passed down through Indigenous ways of knowing.
