Welcome to my official blog! I’m Chika Oh, a Toronto-based visual artist, curator, and the heart behind Born to Create. For as long as I can remember, art has been my way of connecting with others and sharing stories that transcend words. My journey has been about more than just creating—it’s been about building a community where everyone can tap into their own creativity, no matter their background or experience.
In a recent feature with Toronto Caribbean Newspaper, I had the privilege of sharing my story and passion for using art as a tool for empowerment and self-expression. I spoke about how my work helps bridge the gap between art and community, creating spaces where people can explore their creativity and connect with each other. From hosting Sip and Paint events to curating the Born to Create gallery, my mission has always been to inspire others to express themselves freely and boldly.
In the article, I dive deeper into my journey as an artist and how my work with the community has evolved over the years. I invite you to check out the full feature on Toronto Caribbean to learn more about my passion, the challenges I’ve faced, and the rewarding moments that continue to fuel my creative drive.
