Milton Courts (b. 2004, Baltimore, Maryland, USA) is a multidisciplinary artist based in
Limón, Costa Rica. After spending his early years in Baltimore, he moved to Atlanta, where
he attended a project-based high school that encouraged experimentation across
disciplines and allowed him to deepen his commitment to the arts. Courts began playing the
harp at the age of six and discovered painting during high school. Following graduation, he
relocated with his family to Costa Rica, where art became the center of his daily life and
practice.
Working in painting, stone sculpture, and carved wood, Courts creates portraits and objects
that explore memory, identity, and the stories embedded in people and materials. His work
is characterized by expressive color, tactile surfaces, and the use of reclaimed or naturally
weathered media, reflecting his interest in the traces left by time and experience. Through
his practice, Courts seeks to preserve fleeting moments and reveal the enduring
connections between individuals, place, and the objects that bear witness to their lives.
