About | Born and raised in sunny Florida, Nina Bellucci received her BFA in painting from the University of South Florida (2006) and an MFA in painting from Boston University (2009). Her recent solo exhibitions include Doorway_a_gallery, Waltham, MA; Shelter In Place Gallery, Boston; and Dream Clinic, OH. Select group exhibitions include Gallery Tempo, Boston; The Yard: Williamsburg, NY; LaiSun Keane, Boston; Collar Works, NY; Slag Gallery, NY; and Basement Projects, CA. Bellucci has received numerous nominations and awards, including a Massachusetts Cultural Council Artist Grant in Painting (2018), a Joan Mitchell Fellowship nomination (2022), and a residency at Room 83 Spring Gallery in Watertown, MA (2017). She is a founding member of the artist group Musa Collective Boston and exhibits with them regularly. Her works on paper can be found at Uprise Art NYC. Bellucci maintains a studio in Waltham, MA and lives in Newton with her husband and two children.
Wanderer/Mother is part of a group of works entitled "Looking Up", which celebrates the natural phenomena of the everyday and the power of nature and light to heal and energize. Bellucci uses photographs that she took on walks, hikes, and other outings to inspire dynamic compositions, energizing color combinations, and experiments in paint application. As she meditates on the memory associated with each photograph, she is reminded of reasons to be grateful and to be present. The process of painting wet into wet allows for a bit of spontaneity and acts as a metaphor for living in the moment and letting go of complete control over every aspect of daily life. Bellucci hopes that this piece can draw the viewer in and encourage a similar pause or moment of contemplation, to notice the joy and wonder that persists all around us.
