If you happen to be in NYC any time between now and May 7th, I highly suggest that you visit the artist Jordan Nassar‘s work shown at the James Cohan Gallery. And even if you DON’T make it to the gallery, I recommend becoming familiar with Jordan Nassar! Jordan Nassar is a 37 year old native New Yorker (The Collegiate School graduate) and his artwork is mainly hand embroidery.
I did a solo trek down to James Cohan’s gallery on Walker street in TriBeCa. As someone who needlepoints and has a mother AND a daughter that both love to embroider, I appreciate looking at other people’s creation. And Jordan Nassar is unbelievable — his creativity and colors blew me away.
I could spend hours looking at each piece trying to figure out the composition and work.
The stitches.
Different stitches and colors that create an incredible full image.
I love this one!
Incredible craftsmanship!
Each one the more beautiful.
Rolling hills and expansive skies.
Blues.
Patterns.
The wall.
More.
Afterwards, I hopped on the subway and did my own amateur work, but totally inspired and happy!
I hope you have a great week — and do check out Jordan Nassar and his work!
