Artist Bio

Justin Cameron Washington (he/him, Michigan) uses writing to tell stories that confront a lack of representation. A little over a year ago, Justin created the titled “JUScreatedbycam” to act as a somewhat blank canvas for his creations while in high school. These creations have included performance, photo and video production, and design. But the main outlet that Justin embraces is writing. Justin’s first ever piece published was titled please don’t mind my mind, through his participation in Mosaic Youth Theater of Detroit, which spoke on the issues of youth mental health. Justin challenges himself with every piece to continue to grow in personal improvement and hopes that he can make an impact on anyone that comes across his work.
