WALKER ANTONIO

Walker Antonio (b. USA) is a Virginia-based Filipino-American painter whose work blurs the boundaries between the real and surreal, the physical and psychological. Working primarily on a large scale, his process moves from energetic chaos to deliberate refinement. He earned his BA in Studio Art and Art History from Wofford College, where he received the 2023 Whetsell Family Fellowship. Antonio was awarded the Foundation House Artist Residency for 2025 and the Elf School of the Arts Residency for 2026. He was also the first visual artist selected for the Kenan-Lewis Fellowship at Woodberry Forest School, where he currently teaches Drawing and Painting while pursuing an MA in Fine Arts from Falmouth University. 

His work has been exhibited nationally, with solo exhibitions at Stevenson & Co. (Charleston, SC) and the Rhodes Art Center (Gill, MA) in 2025. Antonio completed a solo show at Sheridan Studios in February of 2026 with another solo exhibition at the Baker Gallery (Woodberry Forest, VA) in November 2026.
