Indigenous Artist

My name is Dallas Abram, and I’m an emerging Indigenous artist from Southwold, Ontario. I work across multiple creative forms—drawing, writing, baking, and visual storytelling—to express the deep connection I have to my identity, my community, and the stories that shape us.

My art is rooted in emotion, resilience, and imagination. Whether I’m designing intricate birthday cakes, sketching powerful portraits, or writing from the heart, I aim to create work that feels real, honest, and healing. As someone who’s grown up navigating both challenges and strength within my community, I’ve learned to use creativity as a tool for expression, connection, and transformation.

I’m currently completing my final credit in school and preparing to pursue college in film or archaeology—fields where I can continue exploring stories, culture, and truth in bold and beautiful ways.

As a proud Indigenous youth artist, I’m here to learn, grow, share, and uplift. I believe in the power of our voices and the beauty of our traditions, and I’m honoured to be part of a creative community that celebrates both.
