Asana is an interdisciplinary artist from Coldstream, BC, who has walked a path of creativity throughout every stage of life he can remember. He is currently in his final year of studies toward a B.F.A. in Visual Arts with a Minor in Art History at UBC’s Okanagan Campus.
Through his work, Asana aims to discuss some fundamental aspects of being, the journey inward, and the patterns of nature. He is deeply influenced by Yogic and Buddhist philosophy and meditation practices, as well as Western Esotericism, his Celtic heritage, and an amateur interest in vortex mathematics.
Asana's current art practice includes a range of two-dimensional mixed media, painting, drawing, printmaking, installation and sculpture, recently showing work and creating public artwork around the Okanagan. Whichever medium or shape his work might take, Asana maintains a consistent interest in upholding a spiritually, sociologically and ecologically informed and inspired art practice.
