Artist Profile: Daniel Foster
Overview
Daniel Foster, also known as West Foster, is a multidisciplinary artist whose linocut prints channel ancestral memory, Black identity, and Afro-Jamaican heritage. Merging lyrical thought with ritualized craft, his practice bridges anthropology, poetry, and printmaking to honor intergenerational resilience.
Ancestors Exalted: Children of Bresheh is a bold silhouette study rooted in reverence. The figures, carved with care, appear framed in spiritual foliage—guardians of lineage and light. Each mark serves as both tribute and invocation.
