Biography
Roger Ferreira is a Hamilton-based artist who has been practicing for over 35 years. Hailing from Trinidad, though born in Winnipeg, Roger and his family arrived in Hamilton in the late 1980s and he quickly established himself in the arts community, taking on public mural projects, and working with children and youth to share his skills and artistic vision. He graduated from McMaster University and the University of Toronto OISE. Roger’s art focuses on education as he explores Hamilton’s heritage and brings Caribbean and Trinidad Caribbean heritage to the mainstream.
He founded a downtown artist co-op and regularly worked with other artists to support exhibition practices in Hamilton. Having taught at Columbia College and in the Catholic school system for over 15 years, he has also built a substantive career as an art teacher in this city.
