Ms. Nureyev is a multidisciplinary artist and designer that foregrounds fiber-based mediums and practices that require methodical handwork.Techniques such as weaving, braiding, and hand sewing, as well as painting and illustration that reference textile structures and surface design are common themes in her work. She is interested in revealing the psychological underpinnings, emotional pathology, and spiritual disconnection that accompanies being a descendant of the African American diaspora as well as simply a human and a woman in this world now. Ms. Nureyev has been a teaching artist with the San Francisco Arts Education Project (SFArtsED) since 2006 and is a recipient of a National Endowment of the Arts-funded residency via SFArtsED at the Minnesota Street Project. She was a selected artist included in the 2023 DeYoung Open and is producing ``Soft Spaces for Hard Times: A Community Quilting Project`` that engages San Francisco youth in the creation of a monumental textile collage funded by the SF Arts Commission.
