jamie drouin (b. 1970) is a canadian composer and visual artist.

drouin’s photography presents landscapes as an active record of geological and human influence, and the superimposition of manufactured and natural ecological systems in contemporary environments. his subjects are often the peripheral landscapes that provide the infrastructure or green spaces between suburban developments, where the history of modification and repurposing can be more exposed.

this approach is echoed in drouin’s minimalist audio compositions, where traditional instruments are paired with non-instruments to suggest new ways of listening to and experiencing both.

drouin’s work as a composer and sound artist has appeared at international venues such as the henry art gallery, biennial of the americas, mutek, and todaysart, while his visual art has been featured in solo exhibitions in japan, hong kong, canada, germany, and kazakhstan. drouin has also collaborated with artists including david sylvian, lance austin olsen, lucio capece, and john tilbury.

he lives with his wife in british columbia, canada, and works are represented by infrequency.
