About Jeffrey Nowlin Jeffrey Nowlin is fiber artist and sculptor whose work investigates the social systems which impact daily life. His sculptures, created with found fabrics, fibers and reclaimed objects, address the complex networks of human life. Nowlin uses weaving, sewing, assemblage,and carving as tools to consider the interwoven themes of mental and physical illness, queerness, race, and economic precarity. He utilizes formal elements to facilitate conversation on how visual culture and critical theory contribute to contemporary art. Nowlin works in Boston as a teacher of foundation studio art and art education. He graduated with an MFA in 3D arts from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design in 2019 and a BFA in Sculpture from Boston University in 2010. His work has been part of numerous Boston area group shows, including those at the Boston Sculptors Gallery, I3C artist Group, and the Kingston Gallery. He is a board member of the Piano Craft Gallery, where he exhibited his first solo exhibition in 2020.
