Keegan Carter (b. 1992) is a self-taught visual artist living in the cultural hub of Los Angeles, CA and is a graduate of Georgetown University. His work examines the ever-shifting notion of "I" and the duality inherent in the human condition, positing that our shared humanity lies paradoxically in our individual uniqueness. Having curated self-exhibited shows in the urban crucibles of Oakland, Brooklyn, and Atlanta, Carter has cultivated a praxis that challenges the established paradigms of the fine art ecosystem. As he continues to plumb the depths of self-understanding through his craft, he aspires to ignite parallel voyages of self-discovery in those who encounter his work, fostering a collective exploration of identity and perception.
tl;dr / plain languageI'm a self-taught abstract artist inspired by human life and I use textures and layers as focal points in my practice. I'm based in Los Angeles and am a graduate of Georgetown University. I enjoy challenging "common practice" and self-exhibit my work as I do not have representation.
