Elsa Weldemariam is an artist who currently resides between Sweden and Montreal. Her passion for art began during her high school years in 1997 and led her to attend art school. Despite working as a social worker specialising in child and family counseling for most of her professional life, Elsa has always found ways to incorporate art into her work. One notable example is her use of art therapy during counseling sessions with children and youth, helping them express themselves through sketch and paintings. Elsa is internationally represented by galleries in Europe and Canada and has exhibited her work at numerous fairs and exhibitions across North America and Europe in solo and group exhibitions including world wide virtual exhibition, which was displayed in Times square New York main screens. She also has been doing textured artwork teaching sessions in collaboration with local Arist Associations and has a project with Tiers Lieu Montreal to promote using environmentally friendly materials and recycled materials in artworks.
