OCAD University’s RBC Centre for Emerging Artists & Designers and InterAccess are excited to announce Sar Wagman as the recipient of the InterAccess Studio Assistant Career Launcher!
Sar is a Toronto-based artist and community arts worker who works in cross-disciplinary media and is driven by a passion for art, sustainability, and inclusion. Sar holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from OCAD University in Life Studies where Sar focused on nature, anatomy, technology, biology, ecology and sustainability. Largely inspired by their disabled, lesbian, and Jewish-Indian Trinidadian identity, Sar challenges viewers to consider how life intertwines with nature, and how socio-political disability intersects with their daily existence. Sar's works seek to bring light to the experiences of those whose narratives remain unacknowledged in the mainstream.
