Joy Nutt, a first-generation Trinidadian American born in Washington, D.C., brings her artistic vision to life. Studying at Howard University, she crafts abstract paintings using found objects, resulting in delightful layers of pattern and texture. Nutt’s work explores geometric quilt patterns infused with original fabric-inspired motifs. In her Common Thread exhibit, vibrant paintings echo traditional quilts and intricate collaged crazy quilts. Drawing from a rich Trinidadian family tradition of quilting and sewing, Nutt also finds inspiration in West African Ankara textiles. Viewers will revel in the complexity of her layered art, a tapestry of color, pattern, and texture—a celebration of cherished memories.
