Ash Wilson (b. 1991, Victoria, BC) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Victoria and Ucluelet, BC. Grounded in research-creation, her practice blends critical theory with hands-on experimentation to investigate complex cultural and sociopolitical questions and the narratives that shape collective experience.
She will graduate with a BFA Honours in Visual Arts in 2026 from the University of Victoria and holds diplomas in Visual Arts (2014) and Arts and Science (2013) from Camosun College, Victoria.
Working across installation, painting, sculpture, textile, digital, papermaking, and art books, Wilson’s work engages with critical theory, feminism, community resilience, religious fanaticism, and decolonialism. Notable projects include Shifting Ground (2025), Cataclysm Scarries (2025), Hysterical (2025), and Unrest (2024). Wilson has exhibited at William Street Studio, Victoria (Night Bird, 2025) and Stephen Kenn Showroom, Los Angeles (Honest Painting, 2019). She has participated in exhibitions at the Audain Gallery, Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, Artistree Biannual, Xchanges Gallery, and Camosun College.
