Keila Strong is an American painter and multimedia artist from Chicago, Illinois, known for her vibrant portrait paintings and mosaics addressing African-American culture and history.[1][2] In particular, her colorful mosaics of various Black hairstyles utilize beads, barrettes, hair rollers, combs, and Lego bricks.[3] Strong has exhibited work across the United States,[4] including at the Cincinnati Art Museum[5] and as part of the Museum of Broken Windows.[6]
Strong studied graphic design at the Illinois Institute of Art – Chicago, graduating in 2011. She became a full-time artist in June 2022.[7] Strong's influences include Cubism and Impressionism. Her paintings and mosaics use abstraction and color blocking to portray their subjects.[8] For her multimedia mosaics, Strong starts with a sketch and underpainting as guides before affixing the various objects in place.[9]
