Evan Nesbit

Evan Nesbit's paintings are modified color fields, capturing a performative gesture in the process of distributing paint and pigments to stain, bleach, coat, and color textiles and objects. Nesbit's works – haptic visual images – function as paintings by way of their formal re-ordering of substrates, creating a sense of light and space by foregrounding the texture and weight of supports and surfaces.

Evan Nesbit (*1985) lives and works in Grass Valley, California. Nesbit received his BFA from San Francisco Art Institute in 2009 and his MFA from Yale University in 2012.
