Nissa Kauppila (China, USA)
Nissa Kauppila was born in Vermont, USA.
She holds a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and an M.Ed. from the University of Vermont. Her paintings are exhibited internationally, with current exhibitions and representation in mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore, New York City, Germany and the United States.
Kauppila’s immersion in Chinese painting has awakened a sense of fragility; her work explores the use of line and color as tendrils of tension while embodying a sense of wonderment for the natural and industrial worlds. She challenges the notion of context, forcing the viewer to confront the abrupt beauty of life and death through the explosive movements in color, line and depth.
