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.
