Alexandrya Eaton (she/her) is a contemporary Canadian visual artist whose practice includes painting, textiles, sculpture, weaving and performance. Eaton’s current research examines how fabric manipulations can be incorporated into painting practice, and how the canvas, a woven material, accepts these folds and stitches, conceptually exploring layers and connections of material and memory.
In a practice spanning over thirty years, Eaton has had over fifty solo exhibitions, participated in numerous group exhibitions, and her work can be found in many private and public collections nationally and internationally.
In 2024, Eaton completed her Master of Fine Art from Emily Carr University of Art & Design, in Vancouver, British Columbia. Eaton was awarded residencies at AIR Byrdcliffe in Woodstock, New York in fall 2024 and at the Banff Centre, in Banff, Alberta in winter 2025. In September 2025 she will commence doctoral studies at Concordia University in Montreal in the Faculty of Fine Art.
Eaton’s work has been acquired by: the New Brunswick Art Bank; Mount Allison University; RBC Dominion Securities; Aliant Telecom; Nesbitt Burns; NB Power; the UNB Art Centre; Toronto Dominion Bank; Atlantic Lottery Corporation; Centre d’Art de Baie-Saint-Paul; and the Masterworks Foundation, among many other public and corporate collections.
