Onsite Gallery, 199 Richmond Street West, Toronto 

Onsite Gallery invites Becoming (in the light of the miracle) artists, Alex McLeod, Camille Jodoin-Eng and Zev Farber to share not only their professional pathways, but also the creative and personal journeys that have shaped who they are. The intention is to create space for layered narratives, moments of growth, transition, challenge, and inspiration, that illuminate both career development and the evolving self behind the work.

About the Artists

Alex McLeod, a Toronto-based artist, creates hyper-real digital landscapes, sculptural simulations, and time-based installations that blur the line between physical matter and rendered possibility. Working primarily with Cinema 4D and Unreal Engine 5, McLeod composes luminous terrains, architectures, and artifacts that behave like living systems—growing, eroding, and recombining under algorithmic weather. Bridging fine art and experiential media, McLeod’s practice emphasizes craft, clarity, and world-building while remaining attentive to historical image-making and the politics of spectacle. 

His recent work extends into interactive environments and sound-responsive visuals, inviting viewers to navigate shifting thresholds between presence and projection. He co-founded ORXSTRA, a platform for collaborative visual and sonic research. McLeod’s projects have appeared in galleries, corporate lobbies, and public screens internationally, reflecting a belief that art should move—like light—through many rooms. https://www.alxclub.com

Camille Jodoin-Eng is a Toronto-based artist who has developed a growing visual language of symbols that reveal the intuitive and indefinite. Her studio practice combines mirrored structures, light, discarded trash, glass, paint, and ink drawings. Often inspired by shrines and temples as spaces devoted to reflecting on other worldly existences, her work engages with symbology and mysticism to create physical manifestations that contemplate earthly and spiritual existences. 

Jodoin-Eng completed her BFA at OCAD University (2014). She has been a collaborator of Patel Brown Gallery since 2020. Jodoin-Eng has exhibited throughout Ontario and Quebec. Selected commissioned installations in Toronto including Sunlight Garden (2023) at 688 Dundas St E, Water Shrine (2019) at Nuit Blanche, and Sun Vault (2019) at the W Hotel. http://www.camille-jodoineng.ca

Zev Farber is an interdisciplinary artist from Toronto, Ontario. He completed his undergraduate degree in music at the University of Toronto and received an MFA in visual art from York University. Farber has exhibited, performed and published work in a wide variety of settings in Canada, Australia, the United States and South Korea. In addition, he actively collaborates with many artists and musicians on notable commissioned projects. 

Farber has been a recipient of grants from the Ontario Arts Council. He has been teaching in the field of new media art since 2009 and currently leads interactive and generative media courses at OCAD University in Toronto, while also running OCAD U's RBC Centre for Emerging Artists & Designers. https://www.zevfarber.com
