About the Artist
Justin Perkins is a photographer and line work artist based in Holly Springs, North Carolina. Justin holds a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature from Campbell University and Juris Doctor from Howard University School of Law. A principal theme in Justin’s work is the dynamics of color and how color influences perceptions of the subject’s form and shape. He is concerned with issues surrounding Black empowerment and leisure. He expresses both of these elements through art, and finds photography to be a creative reflection of our world and a useful documentary tool. Previously, Justin focused on travel photography. Referring to the landscapes in his photographs, his style of work has often been described as “scenic” and “expansive.” However, he is currently experimenting with a more subtle and calm series of prints with quieter textures and more focused elements. In addition to photography, Justin was a Tuba player for thirteen years until entering law school in 2018. Justin believes that art is a powerful and necessary medium for channeling positive change.
