Born with Jamaican roots in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Bria "Subconshis" Bridges is a Chicago-based multimedia artist specializing in painting, video editing, graphic design, and photography.
Bria fuses surrealism and modern expressionism to examine the
paradox of individuality and collective identity.
Her portraits articulate the emotional textures of cultural difference, framing diversity not as division, but as a pathway to empathy and shared
humanity.
Bria hopes the viewer can see how physical features can transcend or create culturalboundaries. Whether consciously or subconsciously.
