After graduating from OCAD U in 2023 with a Bachelor of Fine Art in drawing and painting, Hopkins developed a practice focused on creating interactive and playful public artworks. His work often explores dualities, storytelling, and relationships within the technological era, spanning media such as augmented reality (AR), animations, interactive projection mapping, and generative art.

His notable achievements include winning the Emerging Digital Artists Award (2024, XR Category) for his AR-enhanced murals, Stellar Narratives, at Evergreen Brickworks. Hopkins’ visual storytelling has been featured in exhibitions like Nuit Blanche Toronto, Woodland POP! at Thunder Bay Art Gallery, Ice Follies 2023, and La Leun Washisho in Vienna, Austria.

Hopkins’ commercial work complements his artistic practice, encompassing collaborations with clients like ROM After Dark, Born At Midnite, and the University of Toronto. This work involves creating interactive exhibits, music videos, and workshops, leveraging his skills in a professional setting.
