Shantell Martin is a native Londoner, a Central Saint Martin grad, and an emerging artist whose complex freehand works go far beyond mere doodles.
She recently had her first solo show here in New York at Brooklyn’s Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts (MOCADA). The exhibition, which ran from April to July of this year featured artist talks, a live drawing event and a yoga session. Attendees of the live event were able to bring items for the artist to draw on in addition to their own bodies.
