She has taught at the Universi-ty of Saskatchewan, the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, the Vancouver Island School of Art, and in the department of Curriculum and Instruction at the University of Victoria. She is now an Assistant Professor in the University of Victoria’s department of Visual Art. Her creative prac-tice and research uses sculpture, video, and printmaking to explore the seductive tension that ex-ists between reason and play by subverting systems and structures with critically deployed hu-mour.

She has given public talks at universities and galleries throughout British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan. Dickie has received numerous project assistance and creation grants from the British Columbia Arts Council and the Canada Council for the Arts. Her work is held in the collections of the Alberta Founda-tion for the Arts, the University of Calgary’s Nickle Galleries, and the University of Saskatche-wan.
