Shantell Martin is an artist who explores the themes of intersectionality, identity, and play. She is well-known for her recent collaboration with Pulitzer Prize-winning performance artist Kendrick Lamar and The New York City Ballet, where she created large scale drawings in the performance hall and foyer of Lincoln Center for the company’s Celebrate Art Series. Martin is a cultural facilitator, forging new connections between fine art, education, design, philosophy, and technology. In addition to prestigious solo shows at some of the most renowned art institutions including the 92Y Gallery in New York City, the iconic Albright Knox Gallery, and the MoCADA Museum, Martin has carved a path for herself that is as much intellectual as visual artist. She has collaborated with iconic brands such as Nike, Vitra, Max Mara, Tiffany & Co., and in 2018, Puma launched a global capsule collection featuring her drawings.
