About
Meghan Krauss is a practicing photographic artist who lives and works in Victoria, BC, where she currently teaches courses at the Vancouver Island School of Art. She moved to the island after finishing a three-year photography practicum internship at The Banff Centre in Banff, AB (2015). Meghan obtained her Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Windsor, in Windsor, ON (2012) and she holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, (2005) with a major in photography.
She was awarded a Social Science and Humanities Research Council Scholarship, Ontario Graduate Scholarship, and a full tuition scholarship while obtaining her masters degree, and was amongst the highest in her graduating class, convocating with honours with great distinction in the Spring of 2005. She has exhibited her work across Canada and the US, attended a self-directed residency in northern Iceland (2012) and has received a Saskatchewan Arts Board Independent Artists Project Grant.



Meghan's portfolio boasts a strong collection of work.  Her current series, "The Artist", is her response to the place she found herself in during the current pandemic. Inspired by glimpses she was given via social media of other creatives spaces, she began reaching out to individuals. This was with the intent of connecting virtually for a photoshoot to document them working in their studios, regardless of how elaborate or makeshift they were.
