Whether painting in her Brooklyn studio or roaming amidst the medieval artworks at The Met Cloisters, artist Naudline Pierre reframes traditional representations of religion and spirituality, finding freedom in a world of her own making — where the airborne and earthbound coexist and cooperate.

Naudline Pierre was born in 1989 in Leominster, MA, and currently lives and works in New York City, NY. Learn more about the artist at: art21.org/artist/naudline-pierre.
