ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Bertie is a non-binary multimedia artist and photographer based on Vancouver Island. Their creative journey is fueled by introspection, emotional depth, and a dedication to vulnerability. Bertie believes in the power of art and photography to evoke deep emotions and profound thoughts in others.
