Margaret August Coast Salish, shíshálh Nation

Artist Margaret August

Is a Two-Spirited, Coast Salish artist from shíshálh Nation. Margaret was born in 1983 in the traditional unceded Lkwungen and W̱ SÁNEĆ territories, now referred to as Victoria B.C. Margaret’s work is inspired by their traditional teachings and encounters with nature. Margaret originally began developing their artistic talents at an early age. They carried on with their visual art practice as they became an adult. Some of their artistic influences include renowned Coast Salish artist Susan Point, Mark Preston (Tlingit), and LessLIE (Coast 

Salish). Margaret has been taking the time to grow as an artist while developing their own style, and in their business skills. 

In 2017, Margaret started working with further training under the guidance and mentorship of Coast Salish Artist, Dylan Thomas to sharpen their skill set towards advancement in Salish art and design. This has led to creating art in multiple mediums such as serigraph/giclee prints, glass, cedar sandblasted pieces and is currently further mentoring with Dylan in wood carving. Margaret is committed to their art practice as they believe it is their life’s purpose.
