Allyson Mitchell is a maximalist artist working in sculpture, performance, installation and film. This has resulted in (to name a few) a coven of lesbian feminist Sasquatch monsters, a fat activist performance group called Pretty Porky and Pissed off, a room-sized Vagina Dentata and a Lesbian Feminist Haunted House. She is based in the area known as Toronto within the territory subject to the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant and the treaty currently held by the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation. This area has been care taken by the Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Huron-Wendat, and the Métis. Toronto is where she runs FAG Feminist Art Gallery with Deirdre Logue and, in her spare time, works as an  Associate Professor in the School of Women, Sexuality and Gender Studies at York University.
