Aj Smith

A.J. Smith, b. 1999 is a Nashville based ultra contemporary artist who explores symbolism through childlike figurations.
In context, Smith juxtaposes visual bright, bold ideas with a felt silence that mimic our collective inner dialogue.

Currently, as a mental health therapist and mixed race black man, he romanticizes identity as a structure of his work.
