NATE SZARMACH (shar-mack)
Challenging the ability to give and receive information is most important to my practice. When the image is clear It defines its own boundaries and tells you what it wants to be. When an imagine is out of focus, distorted, or gestural it becomes an invitation for our memory, subconscious and imagination to make sense of the subject and what it wants to be. If we accept the invitation, we become active participants in creating the meaning that lies within the artwork in front of us
Nate Szarmach lives and works in Austin, TX. He received his B.A. in Architecture from James Madison University in 2017. Upon completing his degree, Szarmach worked in residential design for several years before embracing his studio practice full-time. Formal Training in design combines with a commitment to contemporary figuration to define the foundations of his practice.
