Linda Dayan Frimer is an internationally recognized artist whose work addresses questions of culture, memory, trauma and reverence for the natural environment. She is a celebrated facilitator and painter who produces cultural, commemorative, educational and esthetically powerful contributions, and whose artworks have been described as “impactful,” “stunning,” “emotionally moving,” “enthralling” and “meaningful.”

Born in the wilderness town of Wells, British Columbia, from a young age Frimer was immersed in in the wonder of the forest, rivers and mountains. It was in these formative years, surrounded by the awe-inspiring natural landscape, that Frimer developed her creative vision. It was also during these early years when she first learned of war and cultural suffering. Becoming determined to champion and protect the sanctity of all life forms, Frimer turned to the creation of art as her natural medium.

Luminous: An Artist’s Story as a Guide to Radical Creativity posits that as the artists of our own stories, we actively cultivate our imagination and our experiences of colour and form. Through knowledge of past artists, who were able to see more in the darkness of their times while visualizing the future, Frimer encourages us to be inspired to bring something new, creative and unifying into existence.
