Mr. StarCity: Big Bless

March 12, 2026 · 50 min

Show notes

Brooklyn artist Mr. StarCity joins The Art Career Podcast.

A multidisciplinary artist working across painting, sculpture, poetry, music, and film, Mr. StarCity’s practice centers on expressive figurative painting and deeply personal storytelling. His works often emerge from poetry and lived experience, exploring themes of love, healing, and the complexities of the human condition.

Originally gaining recognition through murals and public works, his practice has expanded into a powerful studio output across canvas and mixed media, with paintings that feel both intimate and mythic in their emotional intensity.

His work has been exhibited internationally and featured in publications including Juxtapoz, Hyperallergic, InStyle, and Vogue.
