Reisha Felix

Reisha Felix is an award-winning Toronto based fine arts and multi-media artist who was born and raised on the Caribbean island of Dominica. Her art celebrates the treasures of her Afro-Caribbean culture and her lived experiences on canvas - she is particularly interested in highlighting the treasure of Black hair within Black cultures. She is self-taught and uses acrylic paints as well as hot glue to simulate the textured curls, coils, kinks and knots in her sometimes touchable art.

Reisha's art was wrapped on a Durham Region Transit Bus as part of a collaboration with the Regional Municipality of Durham for their 2025 Black History Month campaign and was featured on CTV news to speak about the collaboration and her art practice. She has exhibited her work in various shows at galleries in Ontario including A Black Art Fair at Nia Centre for the Arts, ‘Impact’ at Neilson Park Creative Centre, BLK Frames Vol 3 at Withrow Gallery, 2 shows at The Serpa Gallery, ‘Crown’ at The Scugog Artspace Gallery and at Art a la Carte at the Legislative Building in Toronto. Her art has international reach, many of her works also being held in private collections throughout Canada, England, the United States, Africa and the Caribbean. She has also painted live at several community and corporate events and has facilitated art workshops with schools and non-profit community art organizations like ArtStarts Toronto and the NIA Centre for the Arts.
