MY WORK
My art is deeply personal, a place where I escape the noise of everyday life and find refuge in creativity. It’s a journey of self-discovery—a dialogue between my emotions and the landscapes that inspire me. Each piece I create reveals something new, often unearthing stories, memories, and emotions that I didn’t know were there. Through layers of texture, color, and composition, I explore the quiet power of stillness, inviting viewers to pause, reflect, and connect with the natural world.
Nature is at the heart of my work. The expansiveness of horizons, the elegance of aspens, and the grandeur of mountains fuel my creative spirit. I aim to translate the essence of these landscapes into abstract forms that convey memory, emotion, and a sense of presence, offering a contemplative space for connection and reflection. Negative space is central to my practice, creating balance and allowing each form to breathe, emphasizing harmony amid the movement of life.
BIO
Nuha Moretz is a Yemeni-American abstract artist based in Salt Lake City, Utah. Her artistic journey began in high school in Tokyo, Japan, where she developed a deep passion for creativity and an appreciation for simplicity in visual form.
Before fully dedicating herself to art, Nuha earned an M.A. in International Studies as a Fulbright Scholar and worked internationally in education reform and gender equity across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. These experiences have profoundly enriched the emotional depth and cross-cultural perspective of her work.
Influenced by minimalist Japanese aesthetics, negative space, and the quiet elegance of form, Nuha’s art explores themes of balance, memory, and reflection. In 2020, she committed fully to her art practice, drawing inspiration from nature and modern masters such as Rothko and Agnes Martin. Her work has been exhibited locally and internationally and is held in private collections worldwide.
