DonChristian Jones is a postdisciplinary artist whose practice blurs the boundaries between visual art, music, performance, and social intervention. Working across media and modes, his work engages architecture, community, and futurity—often emerging from spaces shaped by surveillance, abandonment, or resistance. DonChristian’s early years painting inside Rikers Island and other carceral institutions ground his work in both aesthetic experimentation and civic urgency. In 2020, he founded Public Assistants Inc.—a radical mutual aid network and community design studio that reimagines urban space as a site of liberation, care, and creative infrastructure.
