Veronica Classen is a multidisciplinary artist and educator with a practice that explores the intersection of form, the human body, texture, and spatial relationships. Her work often draws on elements of architecture and scale, engaging with the tactile and immersive qualities of materials.
Veronica holds an MFA in Costume and Set Design from Northwestern University and a BFA in Design for the Theatre from Concordia University. She has taught at both institutions, serving as Assistant Professor and Artistic Director of Concordia's Design for the Theatre program.
Her sculptural work has been exhibited in the 2024 Spring Art Show re-location presented by Salt Spring Arts at Mahon Hall and in her solo exhibition, Carapace, at the Stone School Gallery in Portage Du Fort, Quebec. Recent installations, such as her collaboration with artist Gwenyth Dobie at Woodland Farm on Salt Spring Island, incorporate large-scale sculptures and natural elements to create immersive, site-specific experiences.
With a career that spans film, live performance, and fine art, Veronica continues to explore innovative material processes, expanding her practice through sustainable and experimental approaches.
