"This work belongs to an abstract hot-sculpted glass series with figurative metaphors. By crystallizing a spontaneous gestural energy, the objects reject their own ephemerality. These bodily scaled, transparent skeletons of glass trap light to suggest a simultaneous hollow and solid state. Their adorned colors, fluidity, and lustrous materiality command a fragility that nevertheless preserves evidence of their inception. Rock Pearl is a fragile drop that emphasizes a fluctuating content."

Donny Nie

Donny Nie (b. 1997) is a Chinese-Canadian interdisciplinary artist. She received an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and a BFA from OCAD University. Nie is currently a visiting assistant professor in the College of Visual Arts and Design at University of North Texas.
She has exhibited in Canada, the United States, and China. From large-scale oil painting, monotype, digital projection, to small-scale ceramic and glass form, Nie’s interdisciplinary abstractions coalesce to manifest an intuitive, gestalt experience. Her mediums examine proximity as a visual and metaphorical instrument, to simplify or complicate information over different courses of materialities, and eventually inform each other in the same exhibition space.
