Artist Biography

Levin Ifko is an interdisciplinary artist and writer, whose work often engages with feelings of desire and longing, and a curiosity towards objects and sensory experience.

Levin received his BFA in Media Arts (2022) from the Alberta University of the Arts, where he developed an interest in sound, video, performance, and interactive art. Although his work has taken many forms, often blending elements of photography, textiles, sculpture, and installation. He has had the privilege of presenting his art across Alberta, and in 2024 his first solo exhibition, Tender to the Flame, was shown in Esker Foundation’s Project Space. Lately, he’s been most excited about reconnecting with his passion for music.

Eager to highlight the work of fellow artists, Ifko regularly writes about visual art and reviews exhibitions for the online arts blog Akimbo. He also works in the arts sector as a Program Assistant for the TREX Travelling Exhibition Program, as an art handler/prep, and as a collaborator through support in audio/video production, creative direction, and arts program facilitation.
