A Voice in Canadian Contemporary Art
Born in Montreal, Canada, Joanne Tod is a contemporary artist and lecturer whose practice is defined by a mastery of realism. Her figurative paintings, often derived from photographs, utilize irony to challenge stereotypes and unsettle assumptions regarding race, social status, and gender. Through her technical skill, she creates a sense of surprise by juxtaposing well-executed representational images with incongruous objects. Her work has gained significant national attention, moving from the artist-run centres of Toronto's Queen Street West to prestigious institutions. Her paintings are held in the permanent collections of the National Gallery of Canada, the Art Gallery of Ontario, and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

In addition to her studio practice, Tod lectures at the Visual Studies program at the University of Toronto and has served as a judge on Landscape Artist of the Year Canada.
