Join us at FIU CARTA | Mana Wynwood for an art talk with artist Nick Mahshie. Nick Mahshie, b.1985 in Southwest Miami-Dade County, Florida and lives and works in Miami, Florida. Mahshie received a Masters of Design degree in Fashion, Body & Garment in 2017 from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Painting from Rhode Island School of Design in 2007. Shifting freely between Art & Design practices, his work makes clear reference to the visual language of saturated Miami culture while challenging the seductive palette of both our landscape and our sartorial inclinations. His background in Painting, Fashion, and Print Design coalesce in the immersive installations, wearable sculpture and designed objects he creates.
