Biography
Nancy Azara is a sculptor and feminist artist, working primarily in wood, mixed media collage and prints. Her sculpture is carved, gilded, assembled wood; her collages are composed of mylar, paper, paint and the occasional found wood object. Azara’s densely layered art engages with memory, personal history and the cyclical nature of time. Her work has been shown extensively, most recently in two solo shows: VOTIVES: Sculptures by Nancy Azara, Carter Burden Gallery, New York, NY and High Chair and Other Works, A.I.R. Gallery, Brooklyn, NY. She is the author of Spirit Taking Form: Making a Spiritual Practice of Making Art available through Red Wheel/Weiser. She teaches workshops and classes in art making and meditation.
