Nadīne LaFond is a painter / mixed media artist working on paper, canvas, wood and found objects, creating images that explore journey and dimension through the layering of
symbols. Coming from a long line of visual artists, poets and musicians, LaFond began drawing symbols at age four while visiting family
in Haiti. Relying on cues from Nature and personal experiences, her work layers the bird's eye view and the eye to eye encounter at once.
She was born in Brooklyn, NY and raised in New Jersey where she currently lives, and studied at Rutgers Mason Gross School
of the Arts. She is presently an art educator with
Paul Robeson Galleries at Rutgers University.
She is also an accomplished vocalist, songwriter and recording artist.
