Amber Malone is a self-taught artist from Jackson, Mississippi, now based in Brooklyn, New York. Alongside her creative ventures, she as been long passion about and pursued a career in policy research, focusing on human rights advocacy and anti-human trafficking with think tanks and non-profits across France, Italy, and the United States. 

​

With “An Exploration of the Woman”, Amber Malone presents a collection of surrealist interpretations of feminine archetypes. Her illustrations magnify the complex--and contradictory--personal and social issues around identity. With vibrant gradients and dynamic shapes, Amber illustrated her journey navigating gender, race, and religion in the South and her pursuit of a  nomadic life around academia, human rights, and art. Bold strokes mirror passion; shapes moving counter to one another reveal a malleable mind; and bursts of color embody resilience despite uncertainty. Amber’s work has been featured at the 2024 NYC Art Expo and the Atlantic Gallery in Chelsea.
