Jennifer Laflamme is an artist based in Toronto, Canada who works with textiles and paintings. Her work is imbued with the memory and spirit of her interactions with the natural world. Laflamme has studied Fine Arts in Paris and is a graduate at the Toronto Metropolitan Fashion Design Program. Upon completing her degree, she moved back to Japan for a year to study traditional folk textiles and Japanese natural dyeing techniques. She draws from her background in textiles, using traditional dyeing and pigment painting techniques that are rooted in her Japanese-Korean ancestry. Laflamme’s delicate and hand sewn soft sculptures are textile pieces that serve as vessels for our memories and spirit in collaboration with the natural world. She runs Mifi Mifi, a textile studio in Toronto where she creates one-of-a-kind pieces that are carefully handcrafted using traditional textile techniques rooted in her cultural background. She has exhibited in galleries in both Canada and Japan and has experience in teaching her processes.
