Sonya Iwasiuk is a talented self-taught mixed media artist based in Vancouver, Canada. With a deep passion for storytelling through art, Sonya’s work is inspired by her Ukrainian roots and her experiences growing up in small prairie towns. Her art explores themes of memory, heritage, and the emotional stories embedded in discarded objects and forgotten places.
Combining photography, painting, and found objects, Sonya creates thought-provoking pieces that invite viewers to reflect on the past and connect with personal and collective histories. Through her unique approach to mixed media, Sonya captures the beauty in the ordinary, transforming everyday items into powerful symbols of identity and belonging.
Sonya is also a dedicated educator, offering workshops and classes that allow others to explore mixed media techniques and creative expression. Her work continues to inspire individuals to look at the world through a different lens, where even the simplest objects hold deep meaning.
