Clint Griffin was born in Oshawa in 1973. The young Griffin family soon moved onto a small farm on Scugog Island, where Griffin grew up surrounded by airplanes, snowmobiles and space. The art of Clint Griffin comes out of an obsession with collecting discarded materials - searching laneways, dumpsters, and dead zones of Toronto for the surfaces used in his work. The results are quiet narratives of people in their environments. Clint studied Fine Art at the Ontario College of Art & Design, graduating in 1998. His work has been shown in numerous solo and group exhibitions mainly in Toronto, but also Montreal and New York. Clint’s work has been written about in the Globe and Mail, Canadian Art and NOW Magazine.
