Episode 466 / Marcus Troy

Marcus Troy is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores identity, heritage, and cultural storytelling. Deeply influenced by his Caribbean roots, his art reflects the folklore, traditions, and spirituality that shaped his upbringing in a Trinidadian household as a first-generation Canadian. A recent trip to the Caribbean provided further insight into his intuitive practice, unveiling the profound connection between his subconscious and his heritage.

Beyond his roots, Marcus’s artistic vision is shaped by his global travels, experience in fashion and textiles, and deep curiosity about the world. His work merges traditional techniques with contemporary narratives, delving into history, mysticism, and the evolving dialogue between art and society.
