Branscombe House Artist Residency
Branscombe House is located at 4900 Steveston Highway and is one of the earliest settler homes built in the area; as such it is significant for its historical association to Steveston and for reflecting the pattern of commercial and related residential development that occurred in Steveston’s early history. The Branscombe House Artist Residency is an 11-month live-in residency program. Visiting professional artists activate Branscombe House with community-engaged workshops and events throughout the year in exchange for studio and living accommodations. Lou Sheppard is a Canadian artist working in interdisciplinary audio, performance and installation. They have exhibited in Canada and internationally, notably in the Toronto Biennial, in the Antarctic Biennale and the Antarctic Pavilion in Venice. Of settler ancestry, Sheppard was raised on unceded Mi'Kmaq territory and is based in Halifax/K’jipuktuk. Sheppard graduated from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design in 2006 and then studied English and Education at Mount Saint Vincent University. In 2017, Sheppard received the Emerging Atlantic Artist Award and in 2018 was an international residency recipient of the Sobey Art Award. In their current practice, Sheppard uses processes of translation and metaphor to interrogate structures of power and performativity in data and language. Their work often leads them to collaborate with communities and with musicians, visual artists and performing artists.
