Aron Hill
Aron Hill currently lives and works in Calgary, Alberta. He graduated from Alberta College of Art and Design in 2000 with a BFA in Interdisciplinary studies. He then completed his MFA at Goldsmiths College, University of London. His work there evolved into installation based projects using traditional drawing and painting methods alongside formal sculptural elements, large format photography and text based work. He has recently been focused on formalist paintings that recall aspects of minimalism and color field paintings though with references to the figure throughout. He finds conceptual company in the late Modernist paintings produced particularly in Canada. The choice of a restricted medium, acrylic ink washes on prepared raw canvas, forces restraint. The work's graphic nature relies on the sheer flatness this medium produces. Aron has exhibited internationally, occasionally lectures, and writes.

Artist in Attendance


Aron Hill’s latest exhibition, The Lake of Fire is a continuation of the artist’s reflections and meditations on the history of Christian evangelism and its links to masculinity and violence, particularly as it relates to colonialism within Canada. This work draws influence from late modernist Canadian painting and sculpture as well as early Greek and Roman motifs during the early church and universal iconography by way of masks and symbols. Hill looks to queer theorists in order to profane the dominant Christian masculine narrative and currents.
