Pam Hall is an interdisciplinary artist working across, and sometimes in between, the boundaries of medium and discipline.

She makes visual art, constructs installations, works with language, and is engaged in film, video, and most recently, performance. She works alone (inside and outside of her studios), and collaborates with others (sometimes individuals, sometimes communities). Based in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada, she travels extensively to pursue the creation and presentation of her work, and to teach graduate students in the U.S. Her work has been shown throughout Canada and internationally.
