Amira Carrier
Amira Carrier is an Indigenous artist from the Piapot First Nation in Saskatchewan, Canada. She is a multimedia artist educated at Emily Carr University of Art & Design in Vancouver, British Columbia. Amira specializes in mixed media abstract paintings and crafts imbued with Indigenous themes, stories, and culture. Many of her pieces explore concepts of identity and belonging. These themes take form through the use of color, figures, and objects within her artwork. Amira carefully considers the subject matter, creating artwork designed to foster larger conversations for viewers to engage with. She contemplates each piece prior to creation, exploring both Western and Indigenous perspectives before bringing her visions to life.
