Our DC artist of the week is Reggie Black. Reggie Black is a DC Area artist whose work combines mediums of graphic design, typography, and abstract painting. Reggie Black believes in the importance of human connection. His works center on exploring themes such as supporting mental health, expressing vulnerability and living transparently. Black has an impactful TED talk entitled “Are You Using Your Voice?” where he discusses his challenges with mental health and how he works to overcome fear through his art-making process. Black recently released a new set of prints in a collection titled “I-17 S”. The collection is inspired by his travels in the American Southwest this year. Black describes the collection as  “an observation of stillness, an artistic connection with nature, and a conversation with open terrain.” You can support Reggie Black’s work by visiting www.iamreggieblack.com.
