Mira Coviensky’s artwork is intriguing and thought-provoking. Her particular interest is the exploration of book structures and of transparency in the book form. She combines sculpture, photography, and text with everyday industrial and traditional materials to create artists’ books. This art form complements her view of life as narrative.

Her work is in the artists’ books collections of over forty museums and universities, including MOMA, Museum of Fine Arts Boston, Harvard University, Columbia University and Tate Galleries London.

She has over 20 years experience teaching in art schools, museums, cultural centres, guilds, and other venues. Mira is past faculty at the Toronto School of Art and past Program Director at Art Starts Neighbourhood Cultural Centre. She is based in Toronto and travels to exhibit and teach.
