Patrick Cruz is a Filipino-Canadian artist born in Manila, Philippines.

He studied Painting at the University of the Philippines and received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from Emily Carr University of Art + Design in 2010. Cruz’s work adopts aesthetic strategies from folk sensibilities such as ornamentation, decoration and patterning as a means of decolonizing the destabilizing force of modernity and its effects on marginalized cultures.
