Tyler Bright Hilton’s prints and drawings depict issues of identity formation that explore the distinctions between perception and projection. Framed within an ongoing narrative centred on a fictional protagonist, his imagery balances unpredictable and conflicting moods; at once sentimental and ironic, aesthetic and grotesque.

Hilton received a BFA from the Ontario College of Art and Design, Toronto, and an MFA from the Chelsea College of Art, London.  His work has been exhibited across Canada and internationally, and is included in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada, the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the Archive of Modern Conflict. Hilton lives and works in Toronto, Canada.
