Devin's artistic practice is dedicated to showcasing the divine essence of Black people and representing the full range of their emotional expression, which is often neglected in mainstream depictions of Blackness through media and culture. As a portrait artist, Devin strives to capture the inherent realities of our lived experiences, highlighting our diversity and spiritual wisdom.
By forgoing the use of color in his work, he directs the viewer's gaze towards the interplay of light and dark, symbolizing the contrast between strength and imperfection. Using portraiture as a conduit for consciousness, his ambition is to delve into the contemporary truths we face in modern America and the endangerment of our liberties of freedom, knowledge, and self-expression.
