"I’m not interested in creating an illustration. I want to create something that has its own life and power." - Kezleigh
Biography

Kezleigh is a Toronto-based new media artist creating digitally painted, UV-laser printed acrylic works that explore memory, dreams, perception, and the complexity of the human psyche. Rooted in the belief that something beneath conscious thought is always processing our lived experience, her work examines how emotion, memory, and time shape the way we understand ourselves and the world.

​

Kezleigh discovered she was autistic at 27, around the same time she began making art professionally. The diagnosis helped her understand why colours, textures, patterns, and shapes have always felt more intuitive than words or social cues. Art became a way of making sense of emotions and experiences that were otherwise difficult to interpret.

Using custom digital paintbrushes, UV-laser printed ink, laser cutters, and acrylic glass, she transforms digital processes into tactile works that invite reflection and emotional connection. At a time when AI and technology dominate contemporary life, her practice seeks to reclaim digital tools as a source of joy, wonder, and human connection.

​

Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally and is held in private collections. Notable achievements include receiving the Gladstone House Award at The Artist Project and having work acquired for SVNTY's permanent condominium art collection in downtown Toronto. Originally from Muskoka, Kezleigh now lives and works in Toronto.
