Early life and education
Satterwhite was born in Columbia, South Carolina.
As a child, Satterwhite would watch Janet Jackson's video anthology VHS tape everyday after school. Music videos by Deee Lite, Björk, Janet, Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Michael Jackson and Madonna also influenced his aesthetic. He began working with technology at the age of 11 when he got his first personal computer. By the age of 13, Satterwhite spent most of his time painting, gaming, and building websites to sell pornography.[1]
Satterwhite received his BFA from Maryland Institute College of Art in 2008 and he attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2009. He received a MFA University of Pennsylvania in 2010. Satterwhite studied painting at both schools. It was not until graduate school at Penn that Satterwhite began combining his work in video with 3D animation tools.
Career
His work often utilizes his mother's schematic drawings/inventions of ordinary objects influenced by consumer culture, medicine, fashion, Surrealism, mathematics, sex, philosophy, astrology, and Matrilineal concerns.[2]
His series Reifying Desire was featured in the 2014 Whitney Biennial at the Whitney Museum of American Art. Combining 3D animation and live action, the work explores themes of memory and personal history in a virtual dreamlike environment.[3]
Satterwhite has also shown/performed in group exhibitions including MoMA PS1, The Smithsonian, The Kitchen, Rush Arts Gallery, and Exit Art.[4]

A show entitled Disguise: Masks and Global African Art at the Seattle Art Museum from June 18 to September 7, 2015 in Seattle, Washington. It was a show focusing on African masquerade and how the power of the mask and costume is a proactive and playful way to engage in conversation about current social problems like class, gender, and power and to give incite into the future. The show presented contemporary and historical works from the Seattle Art Museum that worked in dialogue together and were a range of mediums from video installation to photography and sculpture.[7]
