BIO
Nathaniel Hale Garnon (b. 1983) is an American artist known for his experimental approach to art, born and raised in Erie, Pennsylvania. At the age of eighteen he moved to Boston to study at Berklee College of Music, which he eventually abandoned in favor of private composition lessons with Joe Maneri. Most of his adult life he spent in Europe, living i.a. in Berlin, Barcelona, Budapest, Belgrade. It was an influential and productive time in his life. Surrounded by art, he began to build the foundations of his own creative work.
His work has been exhibited in Europe, South America and the United States.
He is considered as an expressionist artist who connects abstraction with a recognizable subject matter. The works of Nathaniel Hale Garnon have commonly been labelled as “organic” and “maximalistic”. His unique perspective on female bodies, landscapes, architecture, music is presented as the main subject of his work, where the deformation of reality defines his avant-garde style.
Since 2021 Nathaniel has developed an interest in building wood-metal installations. One of the projects, called “Nyurmók” has been exhibited at Burning Man, Nevada. Each year “Nyurmók” takes different form, combining the concept of microtonality, where different forms of art intertwine into a unity.
