A DIFFERENT WAY OF SEEING
MY EYES.
MY WORLD.
I don't see the world like everybody else. So I made my own.
JUSTIN WHITE FOREVA / CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
THE BLIND ART KING / CHICAGO
I CREATE WHAT
I FEEL.
Justin White Foreva is a legally blind, self-taught multidisciplinary artist born and raised in Englewood on Chicago's South Side. Living with keratoconus since his teenage years has shaped his understanding of sight, expression and what it means to be seen.
Working across painting, drawing, watercolor, acrylic, pen and ink, murals and live art, he creates emotionally charged worlds populated by faces, figures, eyes, movement and color. His practice refuses to live in one box: a canvas, a wall, a moment, or an unexpected surface can all become art.
Faith is part of that story. Justin approaches creativity as a God-given gift, one to use boldly, share freely and keep growing. His work is both intensely personal and an invitation for others to recognize their own feelings within it.
Beyond the studio, he has participated in exhibitions, live-art events, workshops and community conversations in Chicago and beyond. His guiding idea remains simple: the world is an art show.
Beyond what the eye can see.
Art that shifts how we experience the familiar, the beautiful and the overlooked.
Nothing held back.
An instinctive practice shaped by feeling, experimentation and creative freedom.
Art belongs everywhere.
In galleries, on the street, in classrooms, in shared spaces — wherever people are.
