Rebecca Payne


Rebecca Payne is a queer rural artist who is trained in painting, drawing and printmaking. They have an appreciation for banal and liminal spaces and practice sitting with fleeting moments thatin one year, one day, one minutewill pass and may never happen again the same way. Their current work explores transitional themes of experiencing loneliness, awkwardness, and the atmospheres within banal spaces.

Our conversation was recorded in Hamilton within Treaty 3 territory on the ancestral land of the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe nations under the Dish With One Spoon wampum agreement.
