Artist Info
Brandon V. Lewis is a Baton Rouge, Louisiana–based visual artist whose work explores memory, faith, family, and the lived experiences of Black communities in the South. Working primarily in acrylic with elements of mixed media, Lewis creates figurative compositions that are rich with color, rhythm, and emotional resonance. His paintings often draw from personal narratives while speaking to broader themes of resilience, spirituality, and collective joy.
Deeply influenced by Southern culture, gospel traditions, and the visual language of everyday life, Lewis approaches painting as both storytelling and testimony. His work invites viewers to pause, reflect, and recognize themselves within the scenes he presents. Through his practice, Lewis seeks to honor the beauty, complexity, and sacredness found in ordinary moments and shared histories.
