Originally from Germany, Ilka came to Canada in her mid-twenties to study biology. Her art explores the world through a variety of lenses, from scientific-descriptive to critical, intuitive, and surreal. Current projects involve large-scale works in acrylic ink, as well as paper-based sculptural objects that explore legal and policy aspects of human-environment relations.
Ilka is a Signature (Associate) member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and has been showing her work at juried events such as the Sooke and Sidney fine art shows since 2016.
