Myesha Evon Gardner is a Brooklyn, New York-based photographer and art director originally from Cleveland, Ohio. Cultural and social examinations by way of personal experiences influence her lens, which aims to expand a historically narrow presentation of underrepresented people and cultures—and directly challenge the limitations of such narratives. Gardner’s ongoing explorations depicting themes of legacy, love, and labor offer an intimate perspective on the pride, joy, and self-determination of her beloved familial relationships and larger community.
Gardner holds a BFA degree in photography and graphic design from Parsons School of Design in New York City.
