Amy Alice Thompson is an Ontario based mixed media artist. She studied Fine Art at the Ontario College of Art and Design (Toronto/Florence, Italy) in 1995, winning the David L Stevenson Scholarship and shortlisted for the Governor General Academic Medal. Early in her career she began working with appropriated images, drawn to their immediacy and narrative power. Her work explores themes of memory and the natural world through the mixed media collage and sculpture. Her subjects exist both within and without our reality, straddling and exploring the spaces in between.

Her practise also encompasses public art. She has created pieces for Telus Gardens in Vancouver and the City of Ottawa. Her art exhibitions include Purdue University, in West Lafayette, IN. and the Ottawa Art Gallery. Her work has been featured on album and book covers including the Pulitzer Prize winning poet James Tate's final book of poetry (Harper Collins, New York). Her work has exhibited across Canada, the US and Europe and has been acquired by public and private collections.
