Tegan Whitesel: Métis Artist & Educator
Contemporary jewelery, material arts and workshops rooted in tradition, skill building and creative bravery
About the Artist
I’m a Métis mixed media artist and educator based in Kimberley, BC, working in beading, metalsmithing, painting, and material arts. My practice braids traditional Métis processes with contemporary subjects like place, mental health, motherhood, and connection.
I create jewelry through my collection Daughter of Seasons and teach workshops for Indigenous and non-Indigenous community members who want to build skills and confidence through making.
