ALEXIS HUNLEY
Alexis Hunley is a freelance artist based in Los Angeles. Since 2017 Alexis has produced commercial, editorial, lifestyle and documentary work for a variety of clients including The New York Times, Essence, Airbnb, and Time. Most recently, she was part of a collaborative exhibition, Fresh As _: Photographic Meditations from the Black Vanguard (Regarding a New Esthetic) at the Los Angeles Center of Photography.
As a self-taught artist, she draws inspiration from life experiences to create work that celebrates the beauty and complexity of living. “Visual storytelling is my tool of choice and my great passion. My life experiences are heavily shaped by my identity as a queer Black woman. It informs the way I see the world as well as the projects I choose to pursue in the work I produce.”
