Elaine Stocki (born 1979) is a Canadian artist and professor known for her paintings, photographs and her abstract feminist art.
Her photographs have been described as "little retro gems", that appeal to viewers' nostalgia, but can also have a raw, street photography quality.
[4] Her works' retro feel is produced by the processes by which she creates them, including film sprocket holes and layers cut and pasted by hand.
The street photography quality of her work is often referenced to the "indecisive moment", a play of the term coined and made famous by photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson.
"[7] Stocki was awarded the international Tierney Fellowship in Photography for emerging artists in 2009, the same year as South African photographer Tracy Edser.
