About

Hailey Byrde is a visual artist based in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal. She works primarily in analog photography, alongside fibre arts, painting, and printmaking. Her practice explores vernacular architecture, memory, and the stillness of architecture and the photographic image in relation to our ever-changing surroundings.

Through tactile practices—such as quilting, weaving, and hand-printing—she expands and alters photographs to create layered works that engage nostalgia, embodiment, and the emotional residues of place.

Hailey graduated from McGill University in 2024 with a Bachelor’s degree in International Development and minors in Art History and Communications. Born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, to Canadian parents, she developed a love of photography after finding her grandfather’s old Pentax SP500, sparking an ongoing dedication to film-based processes and material experimentation.
