Takashi Hilferink

An adversarial childhood in Cincinnati, Ohio encouraged Takashi to move to Toronto, where he earned a BFA at York University. In 2021, he completed the MFA program at NSCAD University, where he now works as the Drawing and Painting Technician. His children are two and four years old, and regularly (if relentlessly) help him imagine new worlds, new ways to be, and new things to paint.
