The Future is Dope: Vol. 1, Antione Jenkins

April 21, 2026

Meet Antione

Raised on basketball, Antione Jenkins learned discipline, timing, and how to read the moment, instincts that still shape the way he creates today. What started on the court has evolved into something bigger, with his art carrying that same sense of rhythm and awareness. His work moves fluidly between intention and instinct, blending emotion, movement, and lived experience.

Minneapolis roots

A Minneapolis native, Jenkins is a multidisciplinary artist working at the intersection of art, culture, and community. What began with sketching and customizing sneakers has grown into large-scale murals, brand collaborations, and public-facing work that reflects the people and stories around him. Each piece is layered with identity, history, and perspective. Whether working on a wall, a canvas, or a concept, Antione approaches his practice as a way to create connection and invite dialogue.

Rooted in the Twin Cities, his impact reaches beyond the studio. Through community-driven projects and collaborations, he continues to help shape spaces where culture is visible, represented, and evolving. As his path expands, Antione is carving out something distinctly his own, grounded in where he comes from and always pushing what’s next.
