Sydnie is an educator and ceramicist living on the unceded territory of the T’Sou-ke Nation in Sooke, B.C. She obtained a BEd at the University of Victoria focusing on ceramics and geography. During her studies, she discovered the beauty of plant cells under a microscope and began to carve cellular structures into clay. She is mindful of raw materials, a limited resource with ecological and human rights consequences associated with their mining. Thus, Sydnie uses upcycled glaze as a base for her work. From there, the forms and cellular patterns delve into the interconnections of ecosystems and the beauty of nature.
