Motivated in part by Northrup Frye’s statement that Canadian identity can be summed up in the question “where is here?” Montcombroux’s works explore identity, geography, landscape, and place-making in the 21^stcentury.

He has lived in numerous locations across Canada and currently resides in Edmonton, where he is Assistant Professor of Fine Art at MacEwan University. Montcombroux exhibits nationally and internationally, has attended residencies in the United States and Iceland, and has been the recipient of a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant.
