He graduated with a Master’s in Fine Art from the University of Connecticut in 2016 and a BA from Wesleyan University in 2012 where he became interested in how people present themselves\, the masks they wear\, and the differences between who/what is presented and how people really are.  \nKamar’s creative output broadly concerns identity\, specifically black masculinity. He makes series of oil on canvas paintings and drawings that examine how self-presentation changes\, from the perspective of masks\, performances\, and a mixture of both masks and a performance within a cultural narrative. Series of such titles as me\, myself and i\, Selfies\, Schizophrenic Masculinity\, Shizomaica\, and MYTH are ongoing projects that seek to communicate identity as a complex phenomenon. Kamar has collaborated with several charitable foundations that work with Indigenous populations and those in need\, namely the Artist for World Peace Foundation and the Jamie Hulley Fund for the Arts through auctions\, murals\, prizes and numerous fundraisers. He continues to collaborate with Université Laval to help scientists communicate research in Polar Science.  He has recently published his first book “The Artist’s Creative Vision.”  \nPre-registration is required.
