3. Rachel Kalpana James (b. Leamington Spa,<br />

England)<br />

Ontario College of Art and Design, 1993.<br />

(Multi-media Installation)<br />

James’ multi-media art practice is inspired by<br />

her South Asian heritage, immigrant history and<br />

love of books. She explores the construction of<br />

identity and belonging through critique of<br />

authoritative systems, the archive, and<br />

personal/collective memory.<br />

James has exhibited in professional museums<br />

and galleries in Canada, USA, England, India and<br />

Pakistan. Recently, her video projection,<br />

Borderline, was shown in collaboration with The<br />

Kingston Canadian Film Festival and Modern<br />

Fuel (2012). Another video, Bright Oriental Star,<br />

toured the Royal Ontario Museum, The Bhaven<br />

(UK), and the Thunder Bay Art Gallery (2010). I<br />

know you, Louise Boothe was a featured<br />

installation in C<strong>ON</strong>TACT (2004) and Tagore and<br />

Mrs. E., an intervention at the Art Gallery of<br />

Ontario (2000), was featured in Museums After<br />

Modernism edited by Pollock and Zemans<br />

(2007).<br />

James has received numerous grants including a<br />

Chalmers Professional Development Grant. She<br />

participated in many residencies, at the Banff<br />

Centre (2002) and a touring exhibition by<br />

invitation of the Canadian High Commission in<br />

Pakistan (2003).<br />
