About

Amanda Nolan is a painter based in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Her work explores how moments leave traces—shaping and reshaping over time. Using nostalgia as a lens, Amanda intuitively paints from memory, focusing on the interplay between stillness and transformation. Her ongoing series, Arrangements, draws on the iconography of flowers and features them as stand-ins for people, places, and memories. Through the delicate, layered textures of her paintings, Amanda evokes feelings of presence, absence, and the passage of time.
