Malik McKoy (b. 1995, Surrey, B.C.) is an emerging, multidisciplinary artist whose practice consists of painting and digital media. He received his BFA degree from OCAD University in Toronto. Straddling the line between analog and digital, McKoy attempts to create a visual world that encompasses both practices. The subject matter of the work is a reflection of the banal qualities of the everyday, translated through a vibrant and playful lens. He is interested in the ways in which we curate and present our virtual identities online. McKoy recently relocated to Montreal from Ajax in pursuit of his MFA degree at Concordia University. This spring, he is expected to show at Plural 2024 with Susan Hobbs Gallery.
In the past year, McKoy has exhibited work at Trinity Square Video and Susan Hobbs Gallery. Other galleries that his work has been exhibited at include Robert McLaughlin Gallery and Ignite Gallery. McKoy also currently has public artwork installed in Ontario, Canada (Pickering and Vaughan).
