Miles Rufelds is an artist, filmmaker, and researcher based in Toronto. He holds a
Master of Visual Studies in studio art from the University of Toronto, and a Bachelor of
Fine Arts from the University of Ottawa.
Rufelds’ research-based practice mixes archival investigation with strategies of speculative- and para-fiction, considering how forms of narrativity mediate the operations of systemic power and exploitation. His projects often focus on stories where histories of science, industry, labour, and war intersect with artistic, political, or esoteric subcultures.
Rufelds has participated in exhibitions and screenings nationally and internationally, including the Art Museum at the University of Toronto, the Blackwood Gallery, PAVED Arts, the Art Gallery of Hamilton, the Karsh-Masson Gallery, ArtworxTO, and the SIM Gallery. Rufelds is also a co- founder and co-director of Toronto gallery ‘the plumb’.
