Lauren Prousky is an artist and writer based on land colonially known as Kitchener, Ontario. Her multidisciplinary work manifests as distinct projects, each with their own research tracts and material concerns. The connective tissue of these projects tends to be an interest in teasing out poetic moments from the slippery spaces of transformation and entanglement, where words and materials converge, collide, and evolve.

Lauren has an MFA from the University of Waterloo and a BFA from Concordia University. She was a Writer-in-Residence for CAFKA.25 and an AGO Artist-in-Residence in 2023, where she created the participatory performance project, Black Tie Soup Night. In March 2025, Lauren debuted her first one-person theatre show, Microsoft Office Suite Presence: I Look Forward to Hearing Back with Femme Folks Fest in Kitchener. Recent exhibitions include Ed Video, SPACEMAKER II, Cambridge Art Galleries, The plumb and Xpace Cultural Centre. Lauren has published her experimental essays and poetry with Textile, BlackFlash, Public Parking, Untethered and Peripheral Review.
