Foremost is a self-taught visual artist who creates works that challenge Black people to "rethink what it means what it means to be Black as it relates to state violence and racial disparity." Black love, Black resilience, and Black freedom are at the center of his digital, collage, and illustrative works.
Foremost's piece "Reflection" is meant to emulate the reflection he sees in the bathroom mirror. "I look into this mirror every day, day in and day out," he said. "In the morning I wash my face in front of it, twist my hair, and at night I put on my durag and brush my teeth . . . I wanted to show how my eyes see Black people. When I walk down the streets of my neighborhood or turn on my television, I can see Black people shining. I like to think it is a superpower that I possess as an artist. No matter where we live, what we do, or who we love, in my eyes we are always luminous, precious, and golden. Now you can see it too."
