Marshall, NC
Hilary Nylander is an artist and designer based in Marshall, NC. She was born in rural New Jersey (yup! lotsa cows and corn!) just outside of NYC. Upon graduating with honors and a Fine Arts degree from Guilford College she was told NYC was the only way to go -
But the starving artist tale was sticky and The City did not cooperate with her introverted nature … so she forged a creative, but corporate career path in Boston. There she further honed her creative eye working for some of the top brands in New England as a stylist, visual merchandiser and creative director including some rather inspiring trips to Maison Objet in Paris as well as design studios in Germany and Antwerp.
But those rural roots continued to call and she yearned to create visual art of her own making. In 2017 she moved with her musician husband to Western, NC where they built a home with long views in a town full of creative people forging their own funky paths - and Hilary got to work in a studio of her own.
