Over the summer the “Houston raised and Chicago made” artist completed his latest mural installation at the Broader Urban Involvement & Leadership Development’s (BUILD) newest community hub in Austin and also organized his summer art experience, “Something I Can Feel (SICF),” that popped-up in July at The Shops at North Bridge on Michigan Avenue.

“It had been a trying process, but a beautiful one as well,” said White of balancing both endeavors. “This is my largest mural to date and this was the biggest SICF. The production of it all took a village and I’ve been fortunate enough to be surrounded by a great team.”

Being a part of a team is second nature to White, a former college athlete who found himself pivoting after sustaining an injury while playing football at Northwestern University during his junior year. With sports out of the picture, he immersed himself in his studies and ultimately earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in communications.
