Nick Lamia’s abstract works resemble fragmented maps of imagined sites where nature, society, and technology intersect. At Wave Hill, he will work from nature to create multi-dimensional abstractions that highlight the connections between man and nature. Lamia lives and works in New York, NY. He received a BA in Environmental Science at the University of California, Berkeley; he studied painting at the New York Studio School and received an MFA in Painting at Boston University. Lamia participated in the Bronx Museum’s Artist in the Marketplace program in 2010 and exhibited in Bronx Calling: The First AIM Biennial at the Bronx Museum. His work has also been featured in exhibitions at ArtSpace, New Haven, CT; Exit Art, New York, NY; Jen Bekman Gallery, New York, NY; Maine Center for Contemporary Art, Rockport, ME; Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, DC; and FLOW Art Fair, Miami, FL. Lamia participated in residencies at the MacDowell Colony and Triangle Artist’s Workshop. Recent fellowships include a Robert Blackburn Print Workshop Fellowship and a Guggenheim Fellowship.
