About Joseph McKinney Studios
Joseph McKinney Studios is a multidisciplinary art studio led by visual artist Joseph McKinney. Working across painting, printmaking, and public art, the studio explores the human form as a site of memory, perception, and transformation.
Rooted in research and cultural history, the work draws from art history, comic book iconography, and lived experience to examine how identity is constructed and seen, particularly within Black bodies navigating visibility, power, and vulnerability.
Alongside studio practice, Joseph McKinney Studios collaborates with cultural institutions and communities to produce public artworks and projects that connect art to place, history, and shared experience.
