Nina Stanger // CV
Profile
Interaction is integral to my creative philosophy, I am inspired by landscape, and its connection with the people and life that inhabit it. As an interdisciplinary artist and designer my work explores sensory experience through digital animation, sound and sculpture. I am also an avid record collector with a passion for community development and collaboration.
