Carrie Phillips-Kieser works as an artist, teacher and an arts administrator. She studied fine arts at Mount Allison University in Sackville New Brunswick and art history at University of California Los Angeles. Primarily a print-media artist, her visual output is concerned with place, both internal and external. From the internal landscapes of motherhood to external landscapes of our environments, the vestiges of the mark that is left by us and being left on us is of her main concern.  In her current work, she is searching to understand how organisms (including homosapiens) not only bend the environment around themselves, to better develop, but that all organisms are simultaneously bending each other for their own betterment, contributing to a shifting, dynamic landscape. These investigations are developed in both 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional printed and drawn works.

​Phillips-Kieser has taught art and art concepts to children and artists alike through Contemporary Calgary (formerly Calgary Art Gallery) school programs, the Royal Conservatory Learning through the Arts and though private instruction at Aliki’s Art House and Alberta Printmakers.  She is the Executive Director of Alberta Printmakers, an Artist Run Gallery and Studio dedicated to promoting Contemporary print media.
