Shanell Kitt

I am a visual artist and licensed social worker from The Bronx, New York. I received my Master of Social Work degree (2016) and Master of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art - Painting (2020) from Howard University. Drawing inspiration from memories and my intersectional experience, my abstract paintings and memorial installations communicate personal thoughts on social justice, loss and consequent grief, womanhood, empowerment, love and spirituality. I support utilizing art as a tool to assist in the healing process and have facilitated several self-expression through art workshops in New York City, Washington, District of Columbia, and Maryland.
