Kimia Nuban is a freshman at UCLA in the World Arts and Culture major. She is from Thousand Oaks, California and has been an artist for eight years, with a focus on painting. She has been entering art competitions since she was 15, and her piece for this year revolves around grief and her belief that it is a fluid progression rather than linear. She is so excited to be able to work with WACSmash this year, and she can’t wait to exhibit her piece amongst fellow talented artists!
