Addressing pop culture and racial conflicts, nina chanel abney paints scenes rooted in autobiography, current events, and traditional storytelling. Driven by a fascination with the perceived importance of celebrity news as compared to politics, she works in a popsurrealist style, employing cartoonish figures and playful compositions to echo the perpetual stimulation of the digital age. Abney’s paintings have most recently appeared in galleries and shows in New York, Chicago, and Sao Paulo, Brazil, among others.
