Natasha Duwin was born in 1964, raised in Buenos Aires, and has since lived in New York, Tokyo and Miami. In her work, Natasha Duwin explores the ideas of female-ness and womanhood, using non-traditional materials, such as metals and organic matter, in traditionally “feminine” techniques, such as weaving and embroidery. She has shown extensively in recent years, is included in several prominent collections, holds an MFA in Visual Arts from Florida International University, and is an Artist-in-Residence at Art Center South Florida. She has taught and worked closely with the art and creative writing programs at the Lotus House Women’s Shelter.
...with deepest gratitude to Sotheby’s for making this special project possible and its long standing commitment to the Lotus House Women’s Shelter.
