Timothy Wilson Hoey

Vancouver Island, british columbia

Timothy Wilson Hoey’s first solo exhibition at 17 served as a catalyst to start his creative path. Painter, sculpture, musician, photographer, tattooist, teacher and proverbial hewer of wood have all been hats he has worn. Already established as a visual artist, his O-Canada series began as a slight departure in the studio but has become a cross country visual road-trip. A solo exhibition in Trafalgar Square on Canada Day in 2013 gave Londoners a sense of Canada, and Ex-Pats reminders of home. The annual Canada Day Portage Shows have become iconic events to celebrate our people, places, icons and guilty pleasures.

"Canada's most unrecognized artist."

"If Hoey were any more Canadian, he would be a

doughnut."
