About

Sonali is a Hamilton-based multidisciplinary artist and writer. She holds an Honours BA in Studio Art from the University of Guelph and is the youngest of triplets. While her work spans many mediums, she has been most recently focused in zines, video and printmaking. In 2019 she was the recipient of the City of Hamilton’s Emerging Artist Award in Media Arts. Sonali’s cookbook zine Depression Cooking won Broken Pencil Magazine's Zine Award for best info zine in 2022. She loves the way zines take artwork off of the white walls of galleries and puts it directly into working peoples’ hands. Sonali is obsessed with food and finds herself making art work about it often. She makes art as a way to find meaning under the crushing weight of capitalism and the unending anxiety of the climate crisis.
