NEIL MCCLELLAND, 53, hails from the Gatineau Hills, Quebec. He now resides in Victoria, where he received his MFA from the University of Victoria in 2014. McClelland is a 2016 grantee of the internationally prestigious Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation. He has exhibited in artist-run, public and commercial galleries across Canada and he is a sessional lecturer at the University of Victoria. He has a passion for mark making and engages deeply with the history of painting. In his work, McClelland frequently engages with art historical conventions and traditions, intentionally disrupting their boundaries as he seeks to understand their meaning in an increasingly digitally-mediated world.
