To wear a piece of art, is to participate in it’s story. It is about forming an emotional link with the piece and realizing you are a work of art yourself. Sonya Lindsay of Ancient Grove doesn’t just create simple costumes, she creates wearable art in the form of one-of-a-kind fairy wings, fairy costumes, and silk leaf cuffs. All of the accessories, jewelry, clothing and costumes are inspired by the natural world and the unseen, ethereal creatures that inhabit it.
Since receiving her diploma in fibre arts from Kootenay School of the Arts in Nelson, BC, Sonya has been professionally designing and sewing costumes and clothes since 2004. She is also a fantasy illustrator and member of Fantasy Artists of Etsy (FAE).
