The selected works include NIAD and non-NIAD artists, and encapsulate the ebbs and flows during these vulnerable and emotionally fragile times, when the threat of illnesses and the effects of climate change are entangled in our everyday existence.
This exhibition features works created over the past five years by NIAD artist Nathan Lam. A survey of the artist's practice, this collection includes works on paper that predate his time in the NIAD Studio. From charcoal still life drawings, to comic style illustrations branded with his signature "Lamic", and generously applied acrylic paintings of mountains inspired by a summer trip to Alaska. We offer a look into the different ways Nathan Lam works.
Art is as much community as it is individual. We are shaped by those we love and those who love and have loved us. Love and community are intergenerationally woven into us all. Deatra Colbert and Maria Radilla’s work both speak to the ways in which we look to community as inspiration for voicing our own personal experience in this world.
