About the Artist
Miss Bumble is an Illustrator, Painter, Textile & Felting Artist creating on the unceded territory of the K'ómoks First Nation, in the province known as BC, Canada. The artist takes large inspiration from local mycology (study of mushrooms) as well as west coast natural flora and fauna in her illustrations and fibre works.Creating works that have a deep representation of 2SLBGTQIA+ people, which the artist is a part of, comes from seeing a lack of representation in the small communities they were living in along the west coast. Her artwork has an air of whimsy but also carries a message of advocacy for underrepresented groups including bodies of all shapes, orientations and abilities. Each artwork has a story that people can connect to, and the artist hopes that some people also see themselves represented in their work.
