Sophia Borowska is an artist and weaver based in Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang/Montréal. Her installation-based work explores the intersection between textiles, the body, and the built environment. Borowska’s research delves into process and place, responding to specific sites through haptic and obsessive textile practices. Beginning her textile studies at the Capilano University Textile Arts Program, Borowska went on to complete her BFA in Fibres and Material Practices at Concordia University in 2016. She has exhibited across Canada and internationally, mostly presenting at artist-run centres and DIY, site-specific events. Her latest solo exhibition, Prefab Arcadia, was presented at KAMU Museum in Finland in 2022. She has participated in multiple residencies, including in Québec, Denmark, Finland, and Germany. Borowska’s sculptural approach to weaving and textiles has earned her grants and awards from institutions including the Handweavers’ Guild of America, Canada Council, CALQ, and SODEC.
