Natt Cann

Natt Cann is a Canadian printmaker whose projects hone upon the haunting of lands – ideologies and industries keeping afloat Canadian notions of colonial heritage and their subsequent degradation. Natt’s aim is to share Atlantic-centric discussions of commorancy, climate, and past snuffed economic aspirations amidst the celebration of current peoples, politics, and newfound practices onto new audiences. Natt’s ongoing series of work, Forlorn, further explores these notions through lens based printed matter, material choice, installation practices, and advancements in tech.

Natt Cann has exhibited across Canada, and has gratefully acted as a mentor, instructor, and technical assistant to numerous students and professionals unversed in printmaking. Natt has been granted numerous residencies and his recent print projects have been intertwined with a variety of publications, exhibitions, and research grants. His work has been consistently supported by ArtsNB’s funding programs and the Canada Council for the Arts. Natt obtained his BFA from Mount Allison University (2012) and now resides in Moncton, New Brunswick, an Acadian colonial city which sits on the unceded territory of the Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) and Mi’kmaq Peoples.
