Stina’s weavings feature mixed media including data, text, archival materials and oral histories to tell stories about Black people and their contested histories. Bringing together these narratives through intricate patterns, her work bridges the divisions between traditional narrative and data, truth and myth. In this way, her work seeks to give expression to the varied bodies of knowledge that emerge through geographical movement, ritual, ancestry and history.
Stina is 2023/24 recipient of the Gilbert Foundation Scholarship and the Maxwell/ Hanrahan Foundation Materials Award (US) from Cranbrook Academy of the Arts. Recent exhibitions and residencies include the Toronto Biennial of Art (2024), Momenta Bienniale, ZK/U Berlin, the Banff Centre for Art and Creativity (CA), and CultureHub (NYC). Her work has been supported by the Canada Council of the Arts, Holon Berlin and CALQ (Conseil des Arts du Québec).
