biography
Nadïne LaFond is a musician, painter and mixed media artist creating images that explore journey and dimension through the layering of symbols. Coming from a long line of visual artists, poets and musicians, Nadïne began drawing symbols at age four while visiting family in Haïti, where she feels her original creative spark was ignited. Relying on cues from her own heritage, Nature and documentation of dreams through a mix of abstraction, symbolism and figurative elements, she creates language for her investigations into social and cultural constructs, reflections on spirituality and technology and observations of humanity’s place and interaction within Nature.
She was born in Brooklyn, NY and raised in New Jersey where she currently lives. Since 2004, she has developed and conducted workshops for educational institutions and arts organizations as well as an independent teaching artist in visual arts, music and literature.
