About the Artist
Shaunt’e Lewis is an award‑winning multidisciplinary artist and designer based in Indianapolis, celebrated for a visual language defined by bold color, clean lines, and storytelling that centers identity, resilience, and joy. She has a rare ability to transform personal narrative into vibrant imagery that invites viewers to see themselves fully reflected in the work.
Her practice spans across digital illustration, fiber, and large‑scale design. Digital illustration forms the foundation of her studio, translating seamlessly into prints, products, and brand collaborations. Through punch needle and fiber installations, she brings softness and comfort to healing environments, creating tactile works that support emotional well‑being in hospitals and wellness spaces. Across all mediums, Shaunt’e’s work invites viewers to see themselves with clarity, softness, and celebration.
Her impact reaches far beyond any single room. She has collaborated with some of the nation’s most recognizable brands — Lexus, Jordan Brand, Indiana Pacers, Indiana Fever, 2k Foundations, DoorDash, CarMax, Cricket Wireless, Corona, Maker’s Mark, Meijer, Nordstrom, West Elm, Visit Indy, Jiffy Lube, PBS, WFYI, VUSE, and many more. Her commissioned work appears at Indianapolis International Airport, St. Vincent Hospital, Indiana University Health, Ivy Tech, Indiana University, and the Indy 500.
Her national presence continues to grow, with features in The New York Times and Complex Magazine, and exhibitions at institutions including the Southampton African American Museum and Newfields Museum.
