Sofia Olexia-Daigle
Sofia Olexia-Daigle is an artist dedicated to uplifting women of all backgrounds, encouraging them to feel valued and to recognize themselves as works of art. Her identity and gender are central to her sense of self and deeply inform her creative practice.
She approaches art as a means of self-expression and reflection—an ongoing process of inquiry, examination, and interpretation of everyday interactions. Through this process, she translates lived experiences into tangible works that can be shared with a broader audience.
Olexia-Daigle holds a profound appreciation for women and the natural environment. Much of her work explores the strengths and challenges women encounter as mothers, daughters, professionals, and caregivers, as well as the societal barriers they navigate. She is committed to inclusive representation, portraying women of all races, body types, and identities.
As a native of Louisiana, Olexia-Daigle draws inspiration from the region’s natural landscape. Wetlands, wildlife, and elements of swamp flora and fauna appear throughout her work, serving both as cultural references and as a means of connecting with her Cajun heritage.
