Tiko Kerr is a Canadian artist known for his painting and his HIV/AIDS advocacy. Kerr is, according to the Vancouver Westender, "best known for his figurative and abstract acrylic-based paintings; often vibrant images of Vancouver's iconic urban and natural locales and architecture".

Kerr was diagnosed as HIV positive in 1985. Since taking part in a clinical trial in 2005, the disease is now undetectable in his blood. Since the late 1980s, he has been an activist on HIV/AIDS, as well as affordable housing and issues affecting indigenous people. Kerr is a resident of West End, Vancouver and a member of West End Neighbours, which campaigns for greater consultation regarding the city's Short Term Incentives for Rental programme.
