Monisha J. Brown x J. Christopher (Artist/Painter)

In a stunning debut that turned heads across Los Angeles's art scene Jordan Christopher, a rising star, sold out his first solo exhibition at Exhibit A Gallery with 21 original pieces of work celebrating the different fabrics of beauty. The event drew an A-list crowd including co-hosts Tina Knowles and Melba Farquhar, who have become steadfast champions of Black artists. Knowles and Farquhar were pivotal in saving the exhibition when its original venue was cancelled just weeks before opening night.

J. Christopher’s faith remains central to his creative process, transforming canvas into testimony through his collection "Ethos: Beauty Amongst the Thorns." His work, inspired by his medically fragile brother, caught the attention of cultural powerhouses including Angela Bassett, Kelly Rowland and Victoria Monét. All 21 pieces found homes that evening, a feat Christopher attributes to divine purpose. "God really showed who He was and blew it out," he reflects, his humility as striking as his talent.
