Nadïne LaFond’s Summary

Nadïne LaFond is a painter / mixed media artist working on paper, canvas, wood and found objects, creating images that explore journey and dimension through the layering of symbols. Coming from a long line of visual artists, poets and musicians, LaFond began drawing symbols at age four while visiting family in Haiti. Relying on cues from Nature and personal experiences, her work layers the bird's eye view and the eye to eye encounter at once.

She is a musician performing as lead vocalist with experimental roots band, Swampadelica and Bridine. She is also a session vocalist and has recently recorded with moe. and Mike Gordon.

Nadïne LaFond was born in Brooklyn, NY and raised in New Jersey where she currently lives, and studied at Rutgers Mason Gross School of the Arts. She is presently an art educator with Paul Robeson Galleries at Rutgers University.
