Artist: Nik Botkin | Location: Nitro, WV
Nitro, WV
A West Virginia artist who holds a Master of Art with a concentration in sculpture
from Marshall University and a Bachelor of Art with a concentration in painting from
West Virginia State University. He is the owner of Apartment Earth contemporary art
gallery located in Charleston, West Virginia where he exhibits his own work
alongside the work of other nontraditional artists. The juxtaposition of being raised in
a family with multiple generations employed by the local power plants and spending
childhood summers in the wilderness of Pocahontas County is the shaping factor
behind all his work. His goal is to create a non-hypocritical place for people on both
sides of the environmental argument to come together.
