Chad Cortez Everett
Visual Artist • Art Educator • Founder of Jawnism
|
Chad Cortez Everett, a Philadelphia native, creates mixed-media collages that serve as visual narratives of his life growing up in the city. Deeply influenced by the culture of the 1980s and 1990s, his work reflects the energy, struggles, and spirit of urban life during that era.
Through his art, Everett captures the essence of Philadelphia—its rhythm, history, and resilience—while telling a story that is both personal and universally relatable. His work invites viewers to reflect on their own pasts, communities, and the value of memory in shaping who we are. |
