Bree Tabin

2023 SPONSORSHIP FUND WINNER

Bree Tabin (BREE) is a printmaker, sculptor, and muralist, based on Treaty 4 territory in Regina, SK. Their primary focus throughout their practice is art accessibility and community engagement. Maintaining parrhesia and queer identity in their work, Bree creates for expression of duality, community and connection – making work with bold messaging in rejection of subtlety. Currently pursuing their Bachelor of Arts in visual arts at the University of Regina, Bree is grateful to be learning in the community they grew up in. Follow the trail of cackling laughter, and you’ll find Bree.

Amber Bryans

2022 SPONSORSHIP FUND WINNER

Amber Bryans is a Saskatoon-based artist working in painting and printmaking. Inspired by a childhood shared between Saskatchewan's Boreal forests and southern prairie, her works often feature landscapes, forests, prairie skies, and wildlife, particularly birds. Amber uses her art to explore the natural world, our internal human experiences, and human interactions with nature. Amber discovered linocut printing in the spring of 2020, and since then printmaking has become a dominant part of her art practice.
