Porter is eager to understand the world through art and design and is passionate about seeking out culturally specific visual communication. Throughout life’s changes and challenges, Porter has consistently found connection and community through art and hopes to do the same with his travels to Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Nepal, India, Oman, Turkey, and Georgia. Growing up in America, which often values art as a product and not a cultural bond, Porter hopes to reestablish his relationship with art as both a process and an opportunity, connect with other artists, and learn to communicate across cultural boundaries through art and design.
