Ryan Livingstone

Ryan Livingstone has a background in painting and printmaking, working particularly with encaustic (wax). He studied craft for a short time at the New Brunswick College of Craft and Design before moving to Toronto where he continued his studies at the Ontario College of Art and Design, receiving a B.F.A.
Ryan's artistic practice is project based and not bound by medium, exploring forms of installation, sculpture and painting. The work is reminiscent of his geography spanning both the urban and rural, identifying specifically in a Canadian nature. At its core, his work employs a semiotic system that brings our attention to nostalgic histories found within Canadian identities and culture, the rural landscape, the colour pink, the crow, barn and quilt.
