About 

Elycia SFA is a queer textile artist based in Toronto. Her work explores personal narrative and the deconstruction and reconstruction of memory, nostalgia, loss, and the passing of time by portraying these concepts in the form of handwoven cloth. While considering weaving as a tool for image making, she incorporates woven inlay and embroidery which allows her to draw with thread and create representational imagery in the body of the cloth.

She attended OCADU for Material Art and Design: Textiles, and graduated in 2015, and is an alumni of the Harbourfront Centre Artist-in-Residence program. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, is part of several private collections, and has received numerous awards and grants.
