Ember Nevins is a recent graduate of the University of New Hampshire, where she received her BFA in Fine Arts and BA in Women’s and Gender Studies. Ember is fascinated with textures, fragments, and modules, and her work seeks to explore the connections between nature and body. She views her work as an extension of her mind, spirit, and soul – fluctuating with the natural and organic patterns of life. Ember’s process can be described by two actions: searching and building. She looks at her works in process as puzzles that don’t have defined pieces – images that come to life slowly through the amalgamation of fragments and displaced elements. For her, It’s a meditative process, where she can allow herself to be guided by her materials and trust in the final result. Ember is currently working out of a makeshift studio in her childhood home in Dover, New Hampshire, where she can enjoy the company of her family pets, Piper and Gizmo. In her free time, Ember enjoys exploring local areas and taking film photos (which she often uses as reference images), adding to her CD collection, and attending live music events.
