01 — The Artist
An artistic life shaped by heritage and place.
I’m Ovvian Castrillo Hill, a Filipino-Canadian sculptor and visual artist based in Fort St. John, British Columbia.
Growing up within the artistic legacy of my father, the late Eduardo Castrillo, gave me an early understanding of sculpture as a language capable of carrying history, emotion, culture, and ideas. Since beginning professionally in 2003, I have continued to develop a voice of my own across the Philippines and Canada.

My Story
Heritage is a foundation,
not a boundary.
My sculptures explore movement, rhythm, strength, softness, relationships, culture, and the emotional experiences that connect us. Moving to northern British Columbia changed my practice: my artistic heritage came with me, and Canada gave me another landscape in which to explore it.
Whether a work is intimate or monumental, permanent or temporary, I want it to create a moment of connection between the artwork, the place, and the person standing before it.
04 — Commissions
Let’s create something meaningful.
A commissioned artwork should belong to its environment, reflect its purpose, and tell a story that matters. I welcome inquiries for private sculpture, public art, corporate artwork, cultural installations, community projects, and commemorative works.
