“Gravity was a painting I created for my joint show show 'Betwixt and Between' at Thinkspace Gallery back in 2017. I wanted to explore a more surreal and playful aspect of my work with it, and ended up settling on a title inspired by the moon and wave imagery I incorporated.” - Sarah Joncas

Sarah Joncas was born in 1986 and grew up in both Hamilton and Niagara Falls, Ontario. Her interest in the visual arts developed at an early age, starting with the dedicated drawings of dinosaurs and lizards. Eventually the study and enjoyment of working from existing images stirred up the need in Sarah to create images of her own; ones that could reflect the world, yet also appease the personal feelings/ideas that she herself maintained. With this, her direction changed gradually from the world of animation, towards a path in fine art. Sarah recently graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design's BFA program.
