Who is She?
Hello, I’m Beauty Kussoy (b. 1997), an interdisciplinary artist based in Denver, Colorado.
I hold a BFA in Mixed Media & Photography from Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design and currently serve as Head of Membership for the American Society of Media Photographers (Colorado Chapter). My professional journey includes founding my own freelance brand, Beauty Astria Media, and contributing to established fine art studios, where I honed my skills in photography, collage, and writing — all in service of creating cultural narratives that honor memory, emotion, and connection.
My creative process begins with words. Writing unlocks the stories I carry, transforming abstract thoughts into tangible ideas. From there, I shape those stories into visuals — collages, photographs, or a fusion of both — often combining the digital and the tactile to fully capture a moment lived.
As an Indonesian-American woman raised in Southern California, I’ve lived at the crossroads of heritage and personal identity. This perspective informs my art, encouraging me to explore the rituals of human connection, the tribulations that define us, and the textures that surround us.
Drawing from my experiences in community-building, mentoring, and team leadership, I aim to create cinematic stories that immerse you — where you can feel the ocean breeze, hear the hum of a quiet room, and taste the bittersweetness of life.
I want my work to showcase craftsmanship and connection by reminding you of your victories and the power of the present moment.
Whether I’m ideating for a campaign, directing a team, or crafting personal projects, I promise nothing less than a testimony to your time and place on this Earth.
