Constance "Colette" Joyce Urban (January 29, 1952 – June 16, 2013) was a Canadian/American artist known for performance art, sculpture and installation. Her work questioned social conventions, gender roles, and the relationship between spectator and performer, as well as consumer culture and the everyday with a disarming and humorous tone. Urban was a tenured Professor of Visual Arts at University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario, Canada until 2006, when she relocated to the Bay of Islands, in Western Newfoundland and based herself in the communities of Meadows and McIvers, Newfoundland to develop Full Tilt Creative Centre, an artist residency, organic farm and exhibition venue. In November 2012, after a lengthy period of mysterious pain, Urban was diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer. She died at her home in McIvers in 2013.
