Marlon Tobias
Bio
Marlon Tobias (b. 1988, Queens, NY) is a visual artist and art educator whose work reclaims and amplifies marginalized narratives, particularly within the African diaspora. Rooted in drawing, painting, and installation, his practice often draws on archival materials and collected objects to explore themes of erasure, Black rural southern traditions, spirituality, place, domesticity, and community.
His first solo exhibition, To Come Together, To Get Together, was presented at the Museum of Florida Art and Culture. Tobias’s work has since been featured at the 2025 Chicago Expo Art Fair and exhibited at institutions including the Art Center Sarasota, the Contemporary Art Museum in Tampa, and the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago.
