Lindsay Mcintyre

BIOGRAPHIE

Lindsay McIntyre is a filmmaker and multi-disciplinary artist of Inuit and settler Scottish descent with an MFA in Film Production from Concordia University and a BFA in Painting and Drawing from the University of Alberta. She generally prefers to do things the hard way and her multiple award-winning short documentaries, experimental films and expanded cinema performances are often process-based and for some she also makes her own 16mm film with handmade silver gelatin emulsion. Working with 16mm film using experimental and handmade techniques, her short films circle themes of portraiture, place, form and personal histories. She was named the Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton Award recipient for Excellence in Media Arts by the Canada Council (2013), was honoured with the REVEAL Indigenous Art Award (Hnatyshyn Foundation 2017), and her personal documentary Her Silent Life won Best Experimental Film at imagineNATIVE (2012). She has been a member of the Double Negative Collective, EMO Collective, artist-run film labs, and an international consortium of emulsioneers. Recent projects include an animated documentary for Quamajuq, the Winnipeg Art Gallery’s new Inuit Art Centre, Ajjigiingiluktaaqtugut: We Are All Different (2021), a Telus Optik Local documentary Final Roll-Out: The Story of Film (2018) and a monumental projection-mapping installation on the Vancouver Art Gallery, If These Walls (2019). She has made over 40 short films over the past 20 years and her works have screened at festivals around the world such as Ann Arbor, Anthology Film Archives, Pleasure Dome, Mono No Aware, Rotterdam, Analogica, WNDX, imagineNATIVE, Festival du Nouveau Cinéma, Images, Raindance, One Flaming Arrow and Black Maria and they can be found in several permanent collections. She teaches Film + Screen Arts both at Emily Carr University of Art and Design on unceded Coast Salish territories and anywhere else that people will listen. As an analogue activist she is committed to making analogue film more accessible in every sense of the word. She is the mother of Alice Miron.
