Asa (AY-suh) Featherstone, IV is a photo-based artist, curator and founder of MIDTONES Photo Magazine based in Cincinnati, OH. His work prioritizes the beauty and nuance of daily Black life through narrative in a tone that leads by listening. His approach to photography is influenced by his homeschool upbringing, where he spent much of his formative years observing communities and asking questions about the behaviors of the people around him.
Asa’s visual style is shaped by memories of his grandfather’s watercolor paintings growing up: using natural light, soft color, and space tocapture honest moments in a way that feels familiar even to those who view it for the first time.
Asa is open to travel on regional, national,and international assignments.
