Stephon Senegal b. 1975 (United States of America)

Stephon Senegal works primarily in assemblage. His art practice examines martial devices of both colonization and insurgency. The tenets of Creolization and its subversive nature underpin his compositions. Whether on canvas or with steel he constructs visual odes to syncretization through reconfigurations of human, animal and mechanical parts. His upbringing in Louisiana provides a trove of experiential drivers for his work. A graduate of Howard University, Senegal also holds a Master of Fine Art from the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA). As part of his practice, Stephon creates site-specific installations and performances in underprivileged communities. Some of his recent installations include the Liberty City public housing complex in Miami Florida, Marcy Houses and Brownsville in Brooklyn New York. Senegal presently lives and works between Compton California and New York City.
