Evan Nie is an Artist, Lighting Designer, and Fabricator based in Los Angeles.

In 2012 he founded NieLights as a professional artistic venture to design, collaborate, and fabricate Light-Centric Art. Since then he has been designing, collaborating and crafting unique, high-quality sculpture and lighting for retail, restaurants, homes and galleries. He has helped create lighting exhibited at The Ford Amphitheater, for Cirque De Soleil, Coachella, and Cayton Children's Museum, in addition to his continued work with the theater community.

 

His work in the Bamboo series uses sustainable materials and found objects to explore ideas of growth, rebirth and purpose. The Bamboo used in the sculptures has been locally harvested in Eagle Rock, California and cured over a an open fire. Along with the sustainability harvested bamboo, reclaimed wood and found metal create one of a kind sculptures with a small footprint.
