Artist Profile
Nina Klein
Artist based in California
Born in 1987, Nina Klein is a multidisciplinary artist living and working in Santa Monica, CA. Klein creates minimal figurative drawings and sculptural, impasto, and abstract paintings that explore the human condition. Klein utilizes a variety of materials to create her lines, shapes and sculptural texture, including pen, pencil, digital drawing tools, oil paint, plaster and metal wire. She displays her versatility, continually working with seemingly limitless forms of media. Through her work, she highlights and advocates femininity as an aim to create a shift in the social construct of the inferiority it holds against masculinity. Klein sheds light on the fact that feminine design and tastes are valued lower than masculine tastes and aesthetics, and she seeks to disband this inequality.
