Meet Indigo Moore

Indigo Moore

Profession: Artist and entrepreneur

Age: 28

How would you describe your style? I love clothes—wearing a vibe is everything! But it’s the accessories for me—my rings, earrings, glasses, necklaces, etc. My accessories complete whatever I wear, even sweats and a hoodie.

Style icons: I didn’t really have an icon growing up, until about high school [when] I started obsessing over an artist named Tragik, who is based in California. It wasn’t until college I started appreciating different art styles such as contemporary art, Renaissance and realism.

Talk about your art style: I love to try different techniques. I’m currently into oil painting, but I also do graphite/charcoal, acrylic and digital art. It’s only been in the past year or two my style has represented Black women and a reflection of self-love. I’m known for my portraits.

And your tats? My tattoo is still in the works but it represents the left side of the brain (logic, science, numbers). The chemical icon on my forearm is serotonin. And eventually my right arm will represent the right side of the brain (creativity).
