Collection: Avery Gibbes

Avery Gibbes is an artist based in Oshawa, Ontario and a graduate of OCAD University. Working primarily in painting, his current practice revolves around the continual creation and exploration of an imaginary alien world. At the centre of his work are imagined narratives taking place in made-up environments, and these are constructed through sketches that experiment with designs and explore scenarios. Each painting builds off of the previous one, giving viewers a deeper look into what exists within the world that he is showcasing.

Gibbes has exhibited work in group shows in Toronto, Mississauga, and Whitby Ontario, and is coming off of the first solo gallery exhibition of his work at the Leslie Grove Gallery in Toronto. Gibbes has also had work featured in BlogTO and Create! Magazine.
