Nathaniel Pierce, a native of Southeast Missouri, is a seasoned sculptor renowned for his work in the public realm. With a career marked by a passion for creating art that engages and educates, Pierce continually seeks opportunities to enrich local communities through the transformative power of public art. Inspired by the diverse landscapes and stories of his upbringing, he endeavors to use his artistic vision as a catalyst for inspiration and enlightenment, crafting pieces that resonate deeply with viewers and foster a deeper appreciation for the world around us.

"I love the surprise that we get from seeing out of the ordinary things in ordinary places.
That moment of surprise helps bring awareness to our surroundings and creates an opportunity to reimagine our sense of place. My creative approach stems from years of reflection on historical and contemporary issues concerning social and interpersonal communication. As I have focused my career on designing and installing large scale works, I am always interested in opportunities to inspire and educate people through the lens of public art. In my most recent work I have been exploring the idea of unity and how we learn to feel connected through new perspectives "

The relationship that these pieces have with the natural environment communicate to the viewer. It is this connection that helps activate our imagination and helps us see the world differently. Nathans’ work has been displayed extensively in public outdoor sculpture programs across the Midwest, including, The Chicago Sculpture Exhibit, SPACES Sculpture Invitational in Huntsville Alabama, and was the recipient of the Lewis C Weinberg Award at Skokie North Shore Sculpture Park. His monumental sculptures have been commissioned for permanent collections by the city of Bentonville Arkansas, the Paradise Palms & Sculpture Garden of West Delray Beach Florida, and the City of Decatur Georgia.
