2026 Artist in Residence
September 30 - October 25
Amber-Lynn Thorne describes herself as “an artist who owes everything to the ocean.” She is from Thornlea, NL, on the isthmus of the Avalon Peninsula, where generations of her family have fished. She is an interdisciplinary visual artist and graduate of the Visual Arts Program at Grenfell Campus, Memorial University of Newfoundland. Thorne’s practice incorporates imagery symbolic of the fishery and the ocean. Her work represents a reflection on, and metaphorical continuation of, her family’s fishing legacy.
