Lise Beaudry is originally from Earlton, a small village near the Quebec–Ontario border. Her art draws on the traditional pastimes of the Franco-Ontarian community she comes from: fishing (including ice fishing), camping, travel, and family gatherings. Her photographic and video works have been presented in artist-run centres across Canada and internationally: Les Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie, Arles (1997), Grunt Gallery, Vancouver (1999), A Space, Toronto (2000), Biennial of Young Artists, Romania (2004), Ice Follies, North Bay (2006), AXENÉO7, Gatineau (2010), Art Gallery of Hamilton (2011), Art Gallery of Mississauga (2012), Pierre François Ouellette Art Contemporain, Montreal (2017), and Koffler Gallery, Toronto (2018). She lives and works in Toronto, where she teaches at the University of Toronto Mississauga in the Art and Art History program.
