Asha Cabaca is a Canadian-born artist whose love of nature is reflected in her current practice. She graduated with her BFA from York University in 2022 and is currently in the first year of her MFA in Sculpture at West Virginia University. Working in metal casting, steel fabrication, and mold-making, she examines the relationship between the found and made, giving new life to the detritus of the natural world.

For Cabaca, the processes of discovery and collecting are central and she fixates on seemingly dead natural objects found on the forest floor, which are then transformed into sculpture. Asha Cabaca has created site-specific installations in Ontario, Canada, and exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions in West Virginia, Maryland, and Alabama in the United States and in Toronto and Richmond Hill in Ontario, and Montreal in Quebec, Canada. She was also the recipient of a Graduate Teaching Assistantship, and currently teaches 3D Foundations at West Virginia University.
