Bandit of Project Blackfin

Bandit of Project Blackfin is a multidisciplinary artist whose work delves into the mysteries of forests and oceans. Through evocative visual storytelling, Bandit explores the hidden depths and quiet sentience of the natural world, inviting viewers to reconnect with the wild through visions of ghosts and monsters he has witnessed while being enveloped in nature. His art serves as a catalyst for conversations around marine and inshore conservation, and he is a vocal advocate for environmental accessibility—championing the belief that state parks and natural spaces should remain free from paywalls. Under the banner of Project Blackfin, Bandit merges creativity with purpose, crafting art that not only captivates but also calls for stewardship of the planet’s most fragile ecosystems. He is also deeply committed to environmental justice, using his platform to hold businesses accountable for illegal dumping and pollution that threaten both human and ecological health.
