Noa is a Jewish book artist reinventing the book form.

Noa Billick (she/her) is a Toronto-based multidisciplinary artist, designer, and academic. She is a Doctoral Student in the Communications and Culture Ph.D. program at Toronto Metropolitan University. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from OCAD University and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Central to Noa's research and art are themes of Jewishness, storytelling, and the book as a narrative tool for survival and communication. Noa's projects often highlight the interconnectedness of storytelling and identity, emphasizing the book as a medium through which people share and preserve experiences. Noa's art often explores the symbolic and narrative power of books, with a focus on the intersection between personal stories and cultural archives. She aims to make art accessible and relatable, using humor to address human experiences. 

Her Ph.D. research centers on the concept of Jews as people of the book, exploring how Jewish storytelling and communication contribute to cultural endurance. Noa aims to reshape understandings of Jewish identity through a focus on communication and the narrative tradition.

Noa was raised in Montreal and is a big fan of the Oxford comma. She is lactose intolerant and has a cat named Oatmeal, who is also lactose intolerant.​​​
