Born in Ashiya City, Japan, I moved to Vancouver Island in 2010 and have spent most of my life now living, working and playing on the unceded traditional territories of the Liǧʷiɫdax̌ʷ people, as well as the Homalco, K’ómoks, and Tla’amin First Nations.
I am currently pursuing a Fine Arts Diploma at North Island College.
As a working artist with experience entrusting my own artwork to retailers and galleries, I am committed to treating the works of others with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I firmly believe that clear and open communication is essential for fostering positive, collaborative relationships with our consignors. My dedication lies in ensuring that local artists and their works are presented and supported in the most thoughtful and professional manner.
Yuma Bailey – Gallery Manager
I joined the team as a Gallery Assistant in 2024 and am now excited to step into the role of Gallery Shop Manager at an institution that cares so deeply about its community.
I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work and grow within an organization that actively pursues reconciliation, demonstrated through initiatives like the Art Hive, consultations with Traditional Knowledge Keepers, and the exhibition of work by Indigenous artists. I look forward to continuing my learning journey and exploring how I can contribute to being a supportive and informed ally.
