Nathaniel Galka

Design in Columbus, Ohio. He received his BFA in Painting focusing in conceptual studies and from here pursued his MFA at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL. After receiving his second degree, Galka lived in Chicago, from 2001-2005 and was part of a young and thriving group of emerging artists. During this time he participated in various alternative and traditional Fine Art shows and since his subsequent endeavor to experience fresh environments, has lived in Los Angeles, Asheville and Knoxville. Though his location has fluctuated, his commitment to painting, drawing and creating has remained steadfast and hence, through his work, Galka has become a storyteller using pens and paint to mediate his natural subjects and internal processes. He is currently living and working in NYC. His most recent body of work explores environmental themes such as the displacement of plants and animals for the vanity of humans.
