Lexie Owen (b 1982, Canada) is an Oslo-based interdisciplinary artist whose practice explores notions of the collective, structures of support and the organisational potential of being with. Using artistic, curatorial and textual methods, her projects seek to create unexpected space for intimacies, investigate the material conditions that surround collective acts, and find unconventional expressions of agency within the gestures and social forms that make up everyday life.
Owen is currently based in Oslo and holds a MFA in Art and Public Space from Oslo National Academy of the Arts.
