In 2021, Sabrina Pinksen returned home to Newfoundland and leaned in hard to the forces that shaped her. Her work operates to challenge the erasure of outport communities like hers.

 

Sabrina’s visual art has exhibited in Toronto, South Korea, Vietnam, and Australia and her written work has been published by Riddle Fence, Newfoundland Quarterly, and Horse Shoe. She is a recipient of the Percy Janes First Novel Award and the NLCU’s Fresh Fish Award. A grantee of the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation, her visual work has been collected by the City of St. John’s and The Rooms Provincial Art Bank. She holds a Creative Writing MFA from the University of Guelph.
