Sarah Wilson is a potter based in Ladysmith, BC. Originally from Ireland, she moved to Canada in 2018. While pursuing a career in conservation, she felt the need for a creative outlet. Having always been interested in clay, she decided to try her hand at it and quickly uncovered a passion, becoming obsessed with the medium.

Sarah volunteered at various studios while also potting in her kitchen, before deciding to pursue her hobby full-time. She found a mentor and shortly thereafter embarked on a two-year apprenticeship with Mary Fox. This intensive program, designed after traditional European apprenticeships, honed Sarah's skills by having her replicate Fox’s forms.

In the second year, Sarah began developing her own line of functional wares. This experience laid the foundation for her to launch her own pottery practice. She opened her first studio in Ladysmith at the start of 2024. Later that same year, Sarah opened Wilson & Co., a studio and art gallery where she produces and sells her own work and represents a curated group of artists from BC.
