About Me

Chasity is a Nuyorican visual artist born and raised in Bushwick, Brooklyn in New York City. At a young age, she began drawing comics and creating her own worlds as an escape from the adversity present in her household. During high school, she was introduced to Fine Arts and utilized it as another way to pour her innermost feelings onto a two-dimensional format. Her current work primarily consists of still life paintings and drawings which combine symbolism for identity, self-expression, nostalgia, and feelings of melancholy.

She is currently represented by Viridian Artists in Chelsea, Manhattan as a Young Artist, and she was an artist in residence at the Carrie Able Gallery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn during the summer of 2021. She graduated from Parsons School of Design with a BFA in Illustration. Outside of her visual arts projects, she enjoys singing and engaging in martial arts.
