Darius Steward is a watercolor artist whose work expresses social issues of identity, commodity, race, and the placement of African Americans within Western culture. With beautiful colored hues surrounded by stark white spaces, Darius successfully draws our eye to the focal point of the piece - an African American starkly contrasted with a white background. His art opens up a dialogue concerning displacement, voice and identity amongst African Americans.
