Don Brodie is a first-generation, Jamaican-American lens-based artist. Brodie’s studies started at Howard University in Washington, DC, and continued at Parsons the New School for Design in NY, where he earned a degree in photography.
Often studying his surroundings before adding his own influence, Brodie has a passion for documenting what is naturally given with a cultural perspective related to his own experiences. He works with both light and motion to illustrate the feeling and texture that often is vacant in a two-dimensional frame.
His work can be found in a diverse portfolio of independent publications such as Dazed & Confused, Office Magazine, and Citizen magazines, as well as established media including The New York Times, PBS/ Independent Lens, and Bloomberg Businessweek. In addition to his own practices, Brodie co-founded Forgotten Lands, an independent publisher of authentic Caribbean art, culture, and dialogue.
A twin and one of four siblings, his work represents collected inspiration from his family's perspective and experience with a heavy influence from the American alternative scene and unique subcultures.
