Bio
Natalia Nakazawa is a Brooklyn-based artist working in drawing, painting and installation. Her work has been recently exhibited at California College of the Arts (San Francisco, CA), PLAySPACE Gallery (San Francisco, CA), Casa de la Ciudad (Oaxaca, Mexico), Queens Museum of Art (Queens, NY), Topaz Arts Inc. (Queens, NY) and ISE Cultural Foundation (Soho, NY). She received her MFA from California College of the Arts in 2010, a MSEd from Queens College (CUNY) in 2008, and her BFA from Rhode Island School of Design in 2004.
Statement
Materiality, crafting, and tactility are at the core of my multi-disciplinary practice. I use dots of brightly colored paint, intricately patterned fabrics, and glimmering jewels to assemble compositions that explore a diasporic history.
Dislodged from empirical reality, much of my work is taken directly from written dreams and waking fantasies of an alienated homeland. Images of estranged people, exotic creatures, and acid-colored landscapes intertwine in dream-like utopias, falling in and out of logical situations.
