Nancy Lupo (b. 1983, Flagstaff) currently lives and works in Los Angeles. In 2007, she received her BFA from the Cooper Union. In 2011, she received her MFA from the Yale University.
Lupo’s work draws attention to our presence among everyday materials, spaces, and objects that are often overlooked but deeply affect our understanding of the world. She explores ambiguity and confusion as conditions that are both unsettling and full of potential.
