Athen Smith

Film photography and other art forms have given me the space to understand the world and people around me. My body of work is a visual representation of how I see, process and digest my relationships and surroundings. I want people to relate to my art because of their desire to feel the human experience deeply. My art is centered not only around platonic and romantic connection, but the connection with oneself.

I hope you can connect with the sweetness and the pain that’s portrayed throughout my photographs. I hope that you interpret my work with your own experiences intertwined and welcome all feelings, whatever they may be.
