About
NH DePass (b. 1990, New Orleans) is an artist living and working in Los Angeles. He holds an MFA in
Sculpture from Pratt Institute and a BA from the Savannah College of Art and Design. His work navigates
the disjunction between past and present, combining traditional techniques—such as carpentry and
painting—with artificial intelligence and digital technology to disrupt historical and cultural timelines.
His debut solo exhibition, Form Destroyer, was presented at Thierry Goldberg Gallery, New York, in 2021.
DePass has also exhibited at Swivel Gallery (New York), Ross + Kramer (New York), Albertz Benda (Los
Angeles), and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art (New Orleans), where he received First Place in the
2021 Louisiana Contemporary exhibition.
