About Me

Dorian Henry II is a first-year master’s student at Baylor University. He trained as an artist at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff while serving concurrently as Assistant Curator at the Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas, where he developed exhibitions that connected regional narratives with contemporary practice.

He founded Code of the South to honor the “genius of the South,” an initiative committed to elevating the region’s rich creative traditions and spotlighting voices too often left out of national conversations.

As a visiting scholar, Henry expanded his expertise in art conservation at Yale University and the Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library. He further strengthened his work in digital exhibition-making at the Bard Graduate Center, refining innovative approaches to presenting art and material culture across physical and virtual platforms.
