▏Which Draw on Narratives, Moods, and Memories
From torn pieces of paper, Nia Winslow constructs vibrant scenes that evoke togetherness and nostalgia, often harkening back to the mid-20th century. The Brooklyn-based artist taught herself to create mixed-media collages using paper adhered to wood panels, which draw on narratives, moods, and memories.
Winslow predominantly focuses on the African diaspora, tracing stories of the lives of Black individuals in America. Through collages made with a variety of textures, cuttings, and clippings, she illuminates young people playing outdoors, sitting with their parents, and spending time with one another.
▏Passion for Style with Storytelling
The artist enjoys combining her passion for style with storytelling. She draws inspiration from artists like Romare Bearden, Kerry James Marshall, Faith Ringgold, and Jacob Lawrence, often portraying Black figures during everyday activities and in informal, leisurely settings.
“Mundane or complex, each piece is created to capture the essence of life through the lens of someone who experiences it,” she says in a statement. Cars, urban architecture, garments, and hairstyles emerge in vivid, intimate portraits of community, support, and self-love.
Winslow’s work “Steady” will be on view at Affordable Art Fair from March 19 to 23 in New York City, presented by SHEER. Find more on the artist’s website.
