My name is Sumayyah Muhammad and i’m an oil-based figurative mixed media artist born and raised in Detroit, Michigan and currently living/working in Atlanta, Georgia. I earned my BFA from College For Creative Studies in Detroit and currently pursuing my MFA from Savannah College of Art and Design. My work merges oil paint with diverse materials such as yarn, clothing, fleece, clay, and bedding. Resulting in a rich, textural compositions that explore identity, culture, and storytelling. I’m dedicated to my artistic evolution through continuous experimentation and engagement with new materials and techniques. I push the boundaries of mixed media figurative art.
