About The Artist


Johnny Cubert White is a creative of many mediums, more than a few alter egos, and an uncommonly sensitive and instinctive artist who, when his street photography practice was interrupted by his camera losing a battle with gravity that resulted in serious injury to the machine, rolled with it. The #MyBrokenCamera series born of this violent synchronicity soon yielded some rather astonishing visual results — prismatic halos, heat-seeking anatomy, ambiguous architecture, and an overall sense of emotionally charged eccentricity — and spawned more than a few #MBC subseries. Doppelgänger courts the double-exposure presence of two figures in a frame — often in fact a single figure and their shadow-self, #MBCDoppelgänger. And speaking of the shadow self, the acclaimed debut of curated works from the My Broken Camera series had a proper outing in 2017 during the Venice Biennale with the Selfie Portraits — works which both elevated and subverted the ubiquitous social media ritual. White's work is currently available in print form and as an NFT.
