BIO
Jason Zante (b. 1998 in Aklan, Philippines) is a renowned Filipino-Canadian artist based in Toronto, Canada. With a multidisciplinary background, he creates large-scale mural installations, paintings, and digital illustrations. His work explores themes of escapism, capturing nature’s essence to depict the liminal space between reality and imagination. By incorporating visual metaphors, Zante personifies plants, shapes, and symbols within his multilayered narratives. His bold and saturated approach to colour has a transformative impact on both the environment and the viewer. Zante’s creative process encompasses both digital and traditional methods. He constructs his works in layers, employing digital tools and acrylic mediums to add, subtract, cover, and reveal elements.
Zante holds a Bachelor of Design degree from OCAD University and has undertaken several significant site-specific commissions. These include a mural commissioned for The Four Seasons Hotel Toronto in 2021, a 1,200-square-foot mural for Fallsview Casino Resorts in Niagara Falls in 2022, and most recently, a public art commission awarded by the City of Toronto for its Union Station's Unionnale in 2025. Works by the artist are in prestigious and private collections, including TD Bank of Canada, CIBC, Bentallgreenoak, Cboe Global Markets, and Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts. His clients include Justin Bieber, The Globe & Mail, NBA Canada, Klick Health, Deciem, and the Government of Canada.
