#AtlantaCreatives: the local artists who inspire us

Through a mix of mediums, formats and perspectives local artists illuminate the unknown, color the previously black-and-white and add depth to our understanding of our surroundings, our lives, circumstances and more. Through our research process for the Thought provokers series we’ve come across so many works of art that have inspired us and we’d like to share some of those great examples of visual and performing arts, photography and other creative works with you below.

It hit me when someone in the crowd stated “First Rapper in the Lou with a shoe deal since NELLY” Today is the Day. The official Mvstermind x @drschollsshoes have dropped online. From the hidden meanings in these shoes to every sole that assisted in its existence, I could really shed some thug tears rn. This is what we’ve been cooking up with corporate, my childhood dreams. Before we even publicly released, I woke up with screenshots this morning of copped shoes. 😭😤 Foot on Check, I mean foot on Neck Season it is. 👟🤞🏽✨[LINK IN BIO]⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📸: @rjhartbeck ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #Mvstermind #mvstermindxdrs #kicksonfire #ahuntermgmt #kicksoftheday #kod #stlrapper #music #musicindustry #shoeworld #garyvee #nicekicks #highsnobiety #solecollector #hypebeast #forbes #Caleres
