- About
Lee Nadeau is an emerging woodworker, furniture maker and artist, currently living in Portland, Maine. She will have earned a BFA in Woodworking & Furniture Design from Maine College of Art & Design pending May 2025.
Born and raised in central Maine, much of Nadeau’s work is rooted in her ties to her home state. Nadeau takes references from the nature found around her hometown and translates them into graphic visual elements, such as pattern and color. Nostalgia is emotion that she commonly explores in her work, more specifically nostalgia relating to her childhood. Influence by a recent visit to Anderson Ranch Arts Center, her current work is focused on investigating more organic forms and translating them into functional objects, such as drawers and boxes.
