Artist Profile: Ryan Louis

Ryan Louis creates surreal works that flirt with the conventional. We are loving these bright and whimsical photographs.

Ryan Louis is a Toronto based visual artist who creates contemporary mixed-media and photographic images often using paper cutouts. His work is playful in nature and addresses nostalgia and the familiar. He is interested in creating open-ended stories while questioning the meaning of looking often by way of juxtaposing and recontextualing subject matter. Ryan graduated in 2009 from the University of Western Ontario after studying Media, Information, and Technoculture.
