Sarah Wong (she/they) is a writer, choreographer, and interdisciplinary artist based in Vancouver, Canada on the unceded and ancestral territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Grounded in the archive of their queer, disabled, and 2nd(ish) generation body, their practice traces lineages of family history, community resistance, movement across land, and slow gestures of care. They make space for the multiple, creating work that spans performance, site-specific installation, textiles, poetry, and film.

Sarah’s work has been presented in Vancouver by UNIT/PITT, Vines Art Festival, Arts Assembly, New Works, Number 3 Gallery, Hatch Art Gallery, Festival of Recorded Movement, and Odd Meridian Arts, in Toronto by Dancemakers and SummerWorks, and internationally by Mosaico Danza Interplay Festival (Italy) and Sàn Art (Vietnam).

In 2024, they were the winner of ReIssue’s inaugural Art Writing Contest.  Their writing has also been published in Queering Friendships Zine by Mixed Rice Zines, fever dreams by plastic orchid factory, and Mot Juste Magazine by Alexandrina Fleming.

Sarah is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Arts, with a major in Art History and minor in Asian Canadian & Asian Migration Studies at the University of British Columbia, while continuing to practice as an artist. She also has an emerging practice in access consulting, approaching accessibility as a creative practice that is inextricably tied to movements for justice and collective liberation.
