Collection: The Infrastructure Series

Meaning: 

 This series explores the fundamentals of my work, which focuses on depth, texture, composition and colors that bring it all together. I struggle with perfectionism and adding layer upon layer to make a compelling story, but I am finding that the most compelling story are the “bones” that make up each and every painting I make. 

 This painting is inspired by the Golden Age of American architecture. Buildings like the Fisher Building, The Masonic Temple and more were built during this period after architects in Chicago pioneered steel framed construction. Beginning in the early 1880s, architectural pioneers of the Chicago School explored steel-frame construction and, in the 1890s, the use of large areas of plate glass. These were among the first modern skyscrapers. The series explores the backbone of America's infrastructure.

About The Artist..

I'm Leah Nadeau, and I make abstract acrylic paintings shaped by three things I can't separate from how I see: a deep love of architecture, a film school education that taught me to see the world differently, and chromethesia, which means I see colors in my brain when I hear music. Each piece is an original, made slowly, one at a time, built to anchor a room and quietly change how it feels to be in it.

Rooted in Mid-Century Modern Design and themes of resilience and joy, my work becomes the focal point around which collectors build entire spaces.
