Nadine Flowers is a mixed media and collage artist who has spent her life on the Rhode Island coast. Her artistic expression is a testament to her affinity for the shore, stemming from an early passion for beachcombing and collecting. For decades, she has curated a trove of weather-worn objects drawn to the colors, textures, and patterns shaped by nature.  Inspired by the stunning beauty and intricate details carved by sun, wind, sand, water, and time — her art explores the interconnectedness of humans and nature, constantly shaping one another in both subtle and profound ways. Nadine’s exploration extends beyond the tangible elements. She delves into the nuances of negative space, juxtaposition, scale, and the subtle interplay of texture, shadow, and colors. Her assemblages are a visual mosaic reflecting New England’s raw coastal beauty.
