​
Nade is a UK-based visual artist exploring the quiet tension between beauty, danger, and decay. Through raw mark-making, layered textures, and unfiltered observation, her work queries the spaces where nature unravels and survival persists.
A current Fellow at Digswell Arts Trust, she exhibits widely across the UK and was recently awarded an Artist Residency at The Letchworth Settlement.
