Maggie Nowinski

Maggie Nowinski is an artist, educator, and curator who is based in Western Massachusetts. She currently teaches at Manchester Community College, and is the interim director of the drawing program there. Her work is mainly drawing and printmaking. But she often displays these through installations. Like the one featured below, she uses these large drawings and takes it further to transform a space and show the work in an interesting way. Nowinski creates work that explores human emotion, in a style that resembles botanical specimens. She is very interested in the process of mark making and roots a lot of her work in the repetition of these marks. 

I take a lot of inspiration from the way the work is shown. It could have just been hung on the wall, but she takes it a step further. This is something I will continue to work on when creating my own art.
