Stanzie Tooth holds a BFA from OCAD University and an MFA with distinction from the University of Ottawa. In 2015, she received the Joseph Plaskett Award in Painting, supporting residencies in Berlin, Iceland, Greece, and Italy. Her paintings draw from the forests of southern Ontario, where she spent her formative years, and engage art historical traditions through a bodily and intersectional experience of landscape. Her work is included in private and corporate collections, including Royal Bank of Canada, Toronto Dominion Bank, Google, Equitable Bank, the A.T. Tolley Collection, the City of Ottawa, and St. Michael’s Hospital. Tooth lives and works in Toronto, Canada.
