My Name is Knewbian or you can call me Knew. I'm a metal worker who mainly deals with copper, for its healing benefits. I believe all types of art can be healing in many ways and I am living proof that this is a fact! I aim to use art as a way to connect with others and teach ways in which art can be healing.
About
“There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment.”
— Robert Frank
“I see Black people as art.”
I am a mixed media artist, educator, and photographer based out of Washington, D.C. I combine striking black and white photography with acrylic paint or fabric and upcycled frames as canvases. My artwork not only features my students, but celebrates and honors them as living pieces of art. My art is about them; the photography is them. The subject matter is always them. I like to connect them, placing them in Black history. There’s something beautiful about connecting the past and the present and teaching them visually in that way.
