Artist Biography

Brycesonova (Bryceson Bowdre, b. 2005) is a multidisciplinary artist based in Atlanta, Georgia, working primarily in
painting, drawing, and mixed media. Coming from a rich French Creole background
and Southern upbringing, his work explores themes of identity, memory, history,
and the human experience, drawing inspiration from music, African art, popular Culture, art history, and film.

In 2025, Brycesonova held his first solo exhibition in
Atlanta, Georgia. In February 2026, he followed with back-to-back exhibitions
in Atlanta and New York City, before presenting a seven-week solo exhibition, Artworks of a Thin Man, at NYLA House in Brooklyn, New
York.

His practice continues to evolve through experimentation,
research, and an ongoing interest in visual storytelling, bringing together
historical and contemporary references to develop a distinct visual language.

Artist Statement

My work explores identity, memory, history, and the complexities of the human experience. Drawing from Black American history,
African art, mythology, music, popular culture, and personal experiences, I
bring together imagery from different times and places to create new
narratives.

Through acrylic, spray paint, charcoal, and oil stick, I
combine abstraction, distorted figures, symbols, and text to explore the
relationships between the past and present. My process is often spontaneous,
allowing imperfections and unexpected discoveries to become part of the work.

I am interested in the contradictions of human existence, innocence
and violence, humor and tragedy, vulnerability and power. Rather than provide
definitive answers, I want my paintings to encourage curiosity, challenge
interpretation, and invite viewers to discover meanings of their own.
