The Chimerical Constructions of Aria Nadii  

Aria Nadii is a transcendental artist and alchemist whose materials include embroidered fabrics woven through with metals, musical scores and the shredded pages of old books, fragments combined with oils and inks to create a landscape of transformation. She brings to her work a technical skill that allows her to move beyond the boundaries of shape and form into an exploration of chimerical constructions. Layered with subtle meanings, her work calls forth the metamorphic powers of the natural world. In the depths of her glazes we find ourselves mirrored, our reflections caught unawares between the sheer matter of butterfly wings and the echoes of archaic passages. We return from the vision with our sight renewed and a fresh awareness of the patterns that swirl beneath the surface of our lives. - Papaveria Press
