Nina Scott Hansen
My parents where Norwegians living in Denmark when I was born ten years after the war. I came to the U.S. when I was ten.
I attended schools in Colorado, Boston, Oslo, Vienna, and London. My boyfriend taught me to weld in Rockland, Maine, and I began making curious objects, trolls, birds and horses. I have always lived and worked with horses. I am now a slave to the materials, the welder, and the torch.
For the past twenty years my work has sold in galleries in Maine, Norway, and more recently in Arizona.
I have a large garden behind my shop where many pieces still reside.
