about the artist

The works of Sarah Jim are inspired by the absolute beauty of the lands and waters in which the W̱SÁNEĆ people have stewarded since time immemorial. Sarah is a visual artist from the small village of W̱S͸ḴEM (Tseycum) in W̱SÁNEĆ, along with Mexican, Russian-Jewish, and English ancestry. Although she has received a bachelor’s degree of Fine Arts from the University of Victoria, most of her work and teachings are self-taught and community based. These works are reflections of land-based relationships, ecosystems, human and non-human kin connections, and the power of restorative practices. Creating artwork has been a valuable way of advocating for Indigenous ways of being and ecosystems, along with being a powerful form of medicine. 

Sarah's taking a bit of a hiatus from creating public / commissioned art while she studies at the W̱SÁNEĆ College in the full time Indigenous Revitalization Program: W̱¸SENĆOŦENIST
