Artist Statement
Born in Sarnia, Ontario, Stephen Andrews is a Toronto-based artist whose work explores memory, identity, and technology through a wide range of media, including photography, drawing, animation, painting, and ceramics. Over the last thirty-five years, he has exhibited extensively across Canada, the United States, Brazil, Scotland, France, Italy, and Japan, including POV, a fifteen-year survey at the Art Gallery of Ontario (2015), and Aftermath, a series of drawings addressing the Iraq War, at the McMichael Canadian Art Collection (2018).
Known for his innovative approach to image-making, Andrews often combines traditional and digital processes to examine the ways personal and collective histories are constructed, transmitted, and remembered. His work is held in numerous public and private collections, and he was the recipient of the Governor General’s Award in Visual and Media Arts in 2019.
