Beauty From Trauma: Jasyn Lucas
Manage episode 407463250 series 3560637
This love story belongs to Jasyn Lucas, an Indigenous Canadian painter from the Mathias Colomb Cree Nation in northern Manitoba. Jasyn is a survivor of the “Sixties Scoop”, which refers to the large-scale removal of Indigenous children from their homes, communities, and birth families through the 1960s. Subsequently, these children were adopted into predominantly non-Indigenous, middle-class families across the United States and Canada.
Jasyn graduated from the Studio Art Diploma Program from Capilano University where he studied Printmaking, Sculpture, Drawing, Painting, and Art History. His extraordinary paintings are done with a combination of both airbrush and hand-painted applications, using both traditional and contemporary practices. He also applies this to everyday living as well, preserving tradition while exploring technologies and new ideas.
Jasyn finds inspiration for his art everywhere and he has been devoted to creating for over 20 years. His art not only shares extraordinary beauty with others but has provided him with profound healing from his traumatic past.
