ALICIA HARRY
Alicia Harry, with a rich heritage of Inuvialuit, English, Scottish, and Irish roots, calls Inuvik in the NWT her home. Currently, she resides in Whitehorse, Yukon, on the traditional lands of the Kwanlin Dün First Nation and Ta'an Kwäch'än Council. Alicia's creative journey was nurtured from a young age by her artistic family - her mother taught her crocheting and embroidery, while her father's heartfelt stone carvings shaped her design sensibilities.
Deeply connected to the natural world, Alicia often seeks inspiration in the wilderness, foraging for materials that reflect the beauty, flow, and tranquility of nature. She integrates these elements into her artwork, exploring various genres and materials. For Alicia, the forest and spirituality play crucial roles in her creative process.
Alicia pursued a program focused on tanning moose hides, which deepened her connection to her cultural traditions and continues to influence her artistic practice. In her home studio, she creates bohemian-style dreamcatchers, jewelry, and beaded pieces. She is passionate about sharing her knowledge and has led several successful workshops, with her work often selling out at festival galleries and art markets. Alicia aims to protect and honour the environment by using natural materials and minimizing commercial products in her art. Guided by her heart and joy, Alicia finds fulfilment in forest bathing, working in her studio, creative writing, and singing.
