Behind every creative pursuit, or quiet act of resilience is a story worth telling—stories that resonate with different voices, creatives and audiences. In this interview, Chantal Boynes, the founder of Boynes Artist Award, interviews Michelle Patrick whose current exhibit, GRACE is currently on display at the Whitney Library Art Gallery in Las Vegas, Nevada.
"Whether I’m photographing a portrait or documenting an event, I’m always thinking like a performer—how to convey emotion and narrative in a single frame. Photography has become the perfect medium for weaving these skills into a single expressive practice. As a photographer, I also focus on capturing moments that reveal deeper stories about identity and human connection—my recent solo exhibition GRACE reflects this approach to visual narrative."
Whether you're familiar with her artistic journey or just discovering her work, this conversation offers insight, honesty, and reflections that remind us why representation matters.
