Forrest Russell

Forrest Russell is a multidisciplinary artist based out of Montreal, Quebec. He has obtained both a Diploma of pre-illustration and animation from Algonquin College (2012-2013) as well as a Bachelor of Fine Arts Majoring in Studio Arts from Concordia University (2018-2023). Russell is interested in exploring various ways of logging movement. Many of his works capture this through the accumulation, collaging and archiving of objects and images. These collected timestamps act as evidence of our everyday habitual patterns that we as a society often overlook. This process is a meticulous and time-consuming curation. How these pathways intertwine and connect is at the core of Russell’s research aiding him in tracing the trajectory of the world around him.
