Patrick Mahon was born in Winnipeg in 1957.  He received his MFA from the University of British Columbia in 1991.  Mahon has been teaching at the University of Western Ontario since 1995.  His exhibition history includes public venues across Canada, including Plug-In in Winnipeg, Museum London in London, Ontario, the Textile Museum in Toronto and the Art Gallery of Hamilton.   International shows have taken him to the China, the Czech Republic, Scotland, Italy and England.  By using a variety of printmaking techniques and materials such as vinyl, plexi-glass and wallpaper, Mahon has developed installation projects with a strangely ordered character that are commercial in feel but have the poetry of something maintained in a state of suspended animation.
