Biography
Sarah Ronald is an award-winning multidisciplinary Canadian artist living in Nanoose Bay on Vancouver Island, in the ancestral and unceded territory of the Snaw-naw-as First Nation, who, along with 18 other tribes in the Salish Sea, are Coast Salish people who have lived in the area since time immemorial.
Ronald's diverse upbringing in the rural Okanagan shaped her future as an ecologically concerned artist, whose work centres around surveying human behaviour and our impacts on wildlife and the natural world.
Sarah often finds inspiration for her art and engagement projects while working with conservation organizations, evaluating wildlife statistics, and researching challenges around habitat loss and climate change.
Her work can be found in private collections, temporary public presentations, wildlife conservation campaigns, and exhibitions in Canada and abroad.
