NATHAN BELL STUDIO

ABOUT

^{Photo by Gustavo Cabrera}

Nathan Bell is a Los Angeles-based visual artist and designer known for cleverly crafting words and drawings as a way to convey emotions and statements with a gestural feel. His work is intertwined with ephemera, nostalgia, symbolism, and observations that are both comical in nature yet contemplative.

He has shown at Subliminal Projects, The Hole NYC, HVW8, ForYourArt, These Days, Gastman Gallery, and Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery, among others.
