Brandon Thomas Brown, a native of Maryland now residing in Brooklyn, New York, is an interdisciplinary artist whose work is an ongoing exploration of culture, spirituality, and identity. Rooted in his connection to African ancestry.

Through photography and multimedia, Brandon challenges traditional representations of the Black experience. His work weaves together original photography, collage, and symbolic elements, using these mediums to capture the nuances of identity.

As an interdisciplinary artist, Brandon combines these visual tools to reimagine cultural and spiritual connections in contemporary contexts. His practice allows him to bridge the gap between past and present, offering new ways to reframe the narrative of African American identity.
