Art & Advocacy
Clementine M. Deck, J.D. (she/they)
Traditionally trained as a lawyer, Clementine is a queer self-taught artist and professional advocate working at the intersection of art and advocacy.
She is a lifelong Cincinnatian who has spent years building and maintaining collaborative community-centered relationships. With nearly a decade of experience fighting for marginalized communities at the local, state, and federal levels, Clementine brings a distinct and cutting perspective to every project.
Whether it’s fighting to protect fair and affordable housing, leading a neighborhood photowalk with Northside Photowalks, or turning a client’s vision into a reality, Clementine is prepared to help you achieve your goals without compromising on your values.
Her public policy work is regularly covered by various local publications including WLWT and on-air interviews with WVXU. Similarly, her art has been featured in multiple publications, including Cincinnati Magazine and the Cincinnati Enquirer. Clementine’s artwork is also frequently featured in various galleries and showcases.
Additionally, the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, in partnership with FotoFocus, selected Clementine to be a community contributor to an upcoming exhibition titled “Witness to the Journey: Matt Herron and the Mississippi Delta, 1965.”
