Known for her sumptuously detailed large-scale drawings and installations, Nina Mae Fowler’s work interrogates themes of celebrity, beauty, power, and sexuality. Most recently in 2019, Fowler was awarded a major commission for The National Portrait Gallery. Entitled ‘Luminary Drawings’, the series comprises nine portraits of leading British film directors, which now form part of the museum’s permanent collection, including: Sam Mendes, Ken Loach, Nick Park, and Sally Potter.
