Halmos Alum Returns for Fourth Artistic Collaboration at NSU

Annie Nugget

Since graduating in 2016, Annie Nugget has collaborated with NSU several times, bringing her unique art to campus. She has most recently finished a mural, Hopeful Horizons, on the second floor of the Alvin Sherman library, inspired by Luisa Aimee Sanchez’s journey from Cuba to South Florida and her passion for educating young people. Hopeful Horizons was Annie’s first memorial piece, which she says was “exceptionally challenging – but equally exciting”.

“NSU’s program offered me the educational provisions to challenge myself and explore my particular interests. Leveraging their flexibility in project scopes and connections with art enriching experiences, I had the pleasure to curate a lifestyle unique to me,” Annie says.

The mural in the Don Taft University Center, by the north stairs, is also Annie’s work from seven years ago, when she was still an undergrad. Realizing Potential was her first spray painted piece and one of her four collaborations with NSU.

After graduating from NSU with a concentration in Studio Art from the Department of Communication, Media, and the Arts, Annie has ventured beyond the walls of the university. Annie’s art can be found in restaurants, shops and other local business in South Florida. To learn more about Annie’s work, visit her website.
