Elechi Todd (b. 1994) is a self-taught artist from Trinidad and Tobago whose practice spans painting, collage, photography, and experimental film. His work explores processes of self-understanding in relation to his Caribbean background, unpacking the complexities of place, identity, and representation. Todd has also dedicated significant time to collaborative,
community-oriented projects that cultivate public engagement with art outside of commercial and tourist-driven spaces.
Between 2015 and 2021, he worked with fellow Trinidadian artists to transform underutilised buildings into sites for dialogue, learning, community building, and the presentation of contemporary art.
He has participated in residencies including The Fountainhead Residency (2019) and the Leipzig International Artist Residency (2024). His recent exhibitions include Why Now? at Y Art Gallery (2023), instigated by Christopher Cozier, and Prizm Art Fair (2020).
