Nora Chase is a visual artist who makes paintings, drawings, and constructions. She lives and works in Philadelphia, PA. Her work focuses on the emotive capacity of material and process explored within the breadth of human scale, sensation, and the built environment. Varied viewing proximity allows surface to function as both indicator and façade as it collapses and extrudes to the point where plasticity and method are ambiguous. The works employ the sublime and the grotesque as a device to seduce and repel by creating densely layered subtle surfaces that are injected with small acts of violence, which elicit multivalent interpretations. These readings draw on abstract personal narratives – broad and systemic in nature and appearance, but ultimately rooted in emotion and the experiential. Nora earned a BFA from Cornell University where she was a recipient of the David R. Bean Prize to study abroad in Rome and the inaugural Post-baccalaureate Exhibition Award. Her work has been exhibited nationally.
