Katelin Thériault
Katelin Thériault uses plant dyes and natural, upcycled, or repurposed fibres to produce small batch, slow fashion and art under the studio name, “cedar bay sage.” Born to a family of craftspeople who hunt, fish, trap, sew, paint, design, build, sing, dance, knit, and stitch, making and mending came naturally to this community-made artist. Driven by a keen desire to do good by the earth, Katelin finds inspiration in healing and regeneration, mending and cycles of revival, and the still quiet of a star-filled sky. Having lived around the world, including in Aberdeen, Scotland, Katelin is grateful to now call Unama’ki / Cape Breton home.
