24 x 24 x 1.5 inches, acrylic on canvas

Series: This work is from the Mid Century Modern series.

Inspiration: 

Recently I visited Portland for the first time and on the plane over I saw how industrial parts of the city is and it made me wonder about the backstory of Portland.

Industrialization has always fascinated me, because I try and imagine what the land was like before humans changed it. Even where I live right now in Seattle area didn’t exist 40 years ago, it was all farmland.

My friend Cody told me all about how Portland was industrialized and it lead me to do more research into how the city came to be.

I was born and raised in the Midwest, so learning about how the West came to be has always truly fascinated me.

This painting is about exploring a new city, and loving it so much you learn all about it’s historical culture.

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.

Featured in Atomic Ranch Magazine, exhibited at Modernism Week, and permanently installed at the Henry Ford Health Cancer Institute in Detroit, Michigan.
