Artist Bio
Danny Cardoso is a Toronto based artist focusing on printmaking. Danny’s practice revolves around patterns as a language and as a method of storytelling. The patterns are informed by Portuguese tile work, translated into paper with contemporary narratives of queerness and mental health . Danny utilises analogue printmaking techniques, like reductive linocuts and etchings, to harness the repetitive nature of patterns. By printing multiples from each matrix, he creates large scale works that encapsulate the whole pattern.
