Artist Statement

Nadia’s sculptures facilitate intercultural exchange and understanding that defies social, economic, and political norms. She does this by molding wood and uncommon mediums—such as human hair—creating interactive installations that narrate experiences and perspectives that have largely been muted in public discourse. Nadia is revolutionizing what can be done through the medium of sculpture by designing experiences that open eyes and hearts to what it truly means and will take for us all to be united, understood, and permitted to be; fully.
