Hi! My name is Jam and I am an interdisciplinary artist currently obsessed with paper and clay, but you may also find me with a camera in hand every now and again. After graduating from the Alberta University of the Arts with a BFA in drawing and minoring in ceramics, I now practice in amiskwaciwâskahikan ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ/ Edmonton.

Driven by a search for moments of reflection and emotional release, my studio work features a ritualistic use of a spiral motif as the grounding point for various material explorations - flowing between 2D and 3D forms of making, I am interested in embodying themes of organic growth and connection while also exploring the dualistic qualities of fragility and strength that are often present in my work.

When I am not in the studio making things you can find me teaching workshops at Planted Earth Studios, working/teaching at Studio 72 and vending at local markets or hanging out with my partner and our cat babies.
