Tyla Bow is a multidisciplinary artist inspired by the natural world and guided by values of care, connection, and transformation. Her practice spans glass, ceramics, stone, metal, and photography. She often incorporates recycled and reclaimed materials into her process,
honouring their raw qualities and embracing them in the shaping of each
artwork.
The ocean is central to both her art and her life. As a qualified scuba diver and instructor, she draws constant inspiration from time spent underwater. These experiences deepen her passion for the natural world and inform her creative practice. With a background in Marine Biology, Fine Arts, and teaching, Tyla values sharing knowledge—whether through guiding students, creating art, or encouraging reflection on our relationship with the natural world. Each artwork is an extension of her ongoing learning and discovery expressing thoughts, feelings, and stories through form, light, and texture. By embracing unpredictability, imperfection, and transformation, she celebrates the agency of materials and the living systems they reflect, inviting others to consider fragility, resilience, and our shared responsibility to care for the world around us.
