His first introduction to art was in a junior college art history course, and he taught himself to paint by visiting museums. He received his BFA from [[San Jose State University\|San José State University]] in 2001 and his MFA from [[Yale University]]. His work is often multidimensional and sculptural, with canvases slashed and dangling off the frame, or hanging over another painting. One such example is ~~his~~''Behind the Myth of Benevolence'', a portrait of [[Thomas Jefferson]], painted in the Neoclassical style, which he attached to the corner of a nude [[Sally ~~Hemmings~~Hemings]]' portrait frame. The juxtaposition of the fully clothed Jefferson with Hemmings' nudity reinforces the unfair power dynamic between the two, and revises Jefferson's public image to include his sexual relationship with his much younger slave.<ref>{{Cite web\|url=https://onbeing.org/programs/annette-gordon-reed-and-titus-kaphar-are-we-actually-citizens-here-jun2017/\|title=Annette Gordon-Reed and Titus Kaphar — Are We Actually Citizens Here?\|website=The On Being Project\|language=en\|access-date=2018-03-03}}</ref> ==''The Vesper Project''== ''The Vesper Project'' is one of Kaphar's most immersive installations. It concerns a fictional African-American family in the 19th century that [[Passing (racial identity)\|passes for white]]. Kaphar created an installation where visitors would walk through a 19th -century house, uncertain about what was reality and what was remembrance. The project was inspired by Kaphar's attempt to paint a portrait of his aunt, only to realize that parts of his memories of her were fictive. He spoke about the experience while promoting his show: "It occurred to me that, for some reason, my brain had decided to insert her into periods in my life when I needed extra support. That left me reeling; it left me frightened. It made me feel as if I couldn’t trust my own memory. I felt like I was losing my mind."<ref>{{Cite news\|url=https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/17/titus-kaphar-on-the-vesper-project-friedman-benda_n_2679287.html\|title=Artist Titus Kaphar Talks Memory And Madness In His Latest Installation, 'The Vesper Project' (INTERVIEW, PHOTOS)\|last=Frank\|first=Priscilla\|date=2013-02-17\|work=Huffington Post\|access-date=2018-03-03\|language=en-US}}</ref> ''The Vesper Project'' was also a collaboration with a visitor to the Yale Art Gallery, where one of Kaphar's paintings was displayed. The visitor, Benjamin Vesper, experienced a mental breakdown during his visit and punched one of ~~Kaphar’s~~Kaphar's paintings. During Vesper's subsequent institutionalization,<ref>{{Cite news\|url=http://www.craveonline.com/art/1173477-american-artist-titus-kaphar-explore-race-identity-memory-vesper-project\|title=Exhibit {{!}} Titus Kaphar: The Vesper Project - Crave Online\|date=2016-12-02\|work=CraveOnline\|access-date=2018-03-03\|language=en-US}}</ref> Kaphar and Vesper began a correspondence. The two exchanged letters for some time, writing about family and mental instability. Vesper broke out of the hospital and visited a 19th -century house, believing it was his family's home. Kaphar intended to create a physical space for Vesper to return and face his memories, and this became the foundation of ''The Vesper Project''. The rooms contain fragments of memories, specters, and paintings. These rooms are able to be walked through and experienced.<ref>{{Cite news\|url=http://kapharstudio.com/the-vesper-project/\|title=The Vesper Project - TITUS KAPHAR\|last=generator\|first=metatags\|work=TITUS KAPHAR\|access-date=2017-12-07\|language=en-US}}</ref> ==''Time'' magazine== Kaphar was commissioned in 2014 by [[Time (magazine)\|''Time'' magazine]] to paint a response to the [[Ferguson unrest\|Ferguson Uprising]].

The reason I say, ‘And yet it is not,’ is because we know from the actual history that Sally Hemings was very fair. Very, very fair.
