UHN Toronto General Hospital

Toronto, Ontario, Canada
In November, 2023, we installed 24 artworks at the Surgical Oncology unit of University Health Network (UHN)’s Toronto General Hospital. All of the artworks were iconic photographs by Canadian photographer Sherman Hines. Posterjack, an ArtWorks for Cancer supporter, was instrumental in creating the presentation of these images using a refined metal print process. Not only are the images rendered in large format and crisp resolution, but they are placed on metal, which makes them easy to clean and maintain, a particularly important requirement in this sensitive facility.
