Caroline Boileau is a multidisciplinary artist, independent curator, and educator living in Montreal.

She works from a feminist perspective, with a specific interest in health – intimate, public, social, and political. Her works, often hybrid, are developed through a multidisciplinary practice using installation, drawing, video, and performance. The hybrid body, the multiple representations of the body – and that of the woman in particular – are recurring themes in her research, inspired by the history of art, the history of medicine, science and also by current events. Working in dialogue with places, collections and objects, communities and people, her work reveals improbable cohabitations by proposing the transformation, both poetic and political, of a shared space.

Since the 90’s, she has participated in numerous residency projects and her work has been presented in solo and group exhibitions in Canada and internationally. She was the Michele Larose – William Osler Artist-in-Residence at the Osler Library of the History of Medicine at McGill University (2018-2019) and was Artist-in-Residence with the Chaire McConnell-Université de Montréal en recherche-création sur la réappropriation de la maternité : libérer la parole des femmes (2020-2024).
