Bio: Emily Thiessen is an illustrator and climate justice organizer who likes creative troublemaking. She comes from Malaysian-Chinese and Mennonite roots and grew up on Lekwungen and W̱SÁNEĆ territories.

About the mural: Rock Bay Creek flows underground a block away from SOMA. This mural imagines what it might have looked like when it was above-ground and full of life, and what it could look like again in the future.
