A Sunset Beyond the Horizon – Nadia Blanton

Exhibition Dates: November 10 – 21

Reception: November 13, 6p – 8p

Open Hours by appointment

This exhibition is a solo project curated and produced by artist and floral designer, Nadia

Blanton. It presents a body of work that explores femininity and the symbolic language of

nature.

Working primarily in drawing and painting, I use organic forms, flowing linework, and layered

compositions to create images that feel alive and vibrant. I practice reconnecting with the

natural world and draw inspiration from its ever-changing temperament. Oscillating between

definite representational forms and symbolic abstract expression.

Floral and abstract imagery appear throughout the works as a central visual language. I often

consider themes of the earth and the celestial, love, and the small yet profound moments that

define personal narratives. Each work explores the joining of visual art and written word,

specifically through the lens of my poetry. These poems are either directly quoted, subtly

referenced, or echoed through recurring visual motifs.

I am interested in how particular shapes or linework gestures can function like

metaphors—creating lively and kinetic movements. The process starts with writing, sketching,

and photographic documentation to inform the final artworks . I aim to create a cohesive body

of work that is both personal and universally resonant.
