A Conversation with D’Artagnan Winford
Thursday, January 19th at 12pm
“Join the Mississippi Gulf Coast AAF chapter as we welcome D’Artagnan Winford for a conversation on his career path, work, and creative process.
D’Artagnan Winford (b. 1977) is a contemporary fine art portrait photographer who lives and works in Jackson, Mississippi. As a child growing up in the Mississippi Delta, D’Artagnan won prizes for his early work in art and graphic design, eventually earning a BFA from Mississippi Valley State University. Today, his soulful portraits pay homage to that upbringing in small town Itta Bena, which fueled a lifelong passion for expressing the beauty and nobility of everyday people. D’Artagnan’s subjects include dancers, models, bodybuilders, Cuban cigar rollers and musicians, and common threads in his work are light, confidence and peace. As the artist explains, “The human face has stories to tell. I want to capture people in a way that reveals that inner world.” Winford’s distinctive, award-winning portraitures have received international recognition both for their startling beauty and for their ability to uplift and inspire.”
