KOAC Artist in Residence

Sinéad is joining KOAC for a two-month-long studio residency in May and June of 2025.

As one of the youngest female Irish-Canadian sculptors working with welded public art, Sinéad Ludwig-Burgess creates surreal artworks that question the viewers’ notion of space and the human body. Sinéad Ludwig-Burgess has always been fascinated with the miracle of the human body and is curious as to how the mind influences the body to create healing mechanisms to transform the entire self. The majority of Ludwig-Burgess’ art in her portfolio incorporates the use of scrap metal and recycled materials where she enjoys the process of repurposing these items to make environmentally conscious sculptures. Sinéad currently works and resides in Treaty 7 territory and continues to follow her passion exploring the limitless potential of metal.

We will have a special artist talk and program with Sinéad on June 29th, so make sure to save the date!
