conversation with artist Sarah Mihara Creagen, commissioned as part of Art POP 2019
Born in Nova Scotia, Sarah Mihara Creagen is a white passing mixed-race Japanese Canadian queer artist currently based in Ontario, Canada. She received her MFA from Hunter College in 2018. Creagen was the recipient of the Kossak Travel grant which enabled her and her younger sister to travel to Japan in 2018. They retraced family roots, looked at art, and ate their way across the country.
Creagen has exhibited work in Toronto and New York, and has an upcoming solo show opening in November 2019 at Articule Gallery in Montreal. Creagen has had recent solo exhibitions at SPRING/BREAK Art Show and Hercules Gallery in New York, and is a 2018/2019 Queer|Art Mentorship Fellow paired with Neil Goldberg. She is currently participating as a Cottage Artist in Residence at the Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant.
