Carmen Redunante

Carmen Paola Redunante is an emerging artist with deep Indigenous roots. On her mother’s side, she is of Chilean heritage, while her father’s lineage connects her to the Nisga’a Nation from the village of Gingolx. Her paternal grandfather is Tsimshian from Lax Kw’alaams.

Driven by a strong passion for the environment, Carmen uses her art to explore themes of beauty, resilience, and subtle activism. Her work often carries layered messages about the urgent need to protect forests, wildlife, and water sources—an extension of her commitment to environmental stewardship.

After completing two years in the Freda Diesing School of Northwest Coast Art, Carmen has been actively exploring her identity through her practice. Her decision to attend Freda Diesing stemmed from a desire to reconnect with her Nation and to gain an authentic understanding of Northwest Coast Indigenous art. She recently completed her BFA at Emily Carr University, using her practice to reconnect with her Indigenous identity and deepen her understanding of Northwest Coast art.
