Her focus areas are ceramic sculpture and painting. Nagle often combines the two techniques to create works that reference her own life experiences. She received an Excellence Scholarship to attend NKU and participated in a BFA art show while attending college. She is currently based in the Cincinnati/ Northern Kentucky area.
My work explores both the ceramic and painting forms, and by combining them it allows me to be more expressive and experimental. My work reflects self-growth and the people in my life who have nurtured that. I use symbolism to represent different emotions and mental health periods in my life. Fears such as rodents, bugs, and teeth falling out are a common occurrence in my pieces. My family and loved ones also have an influence on my artwork. They are represented throughout multiple pieces, as they have had a great impact on my life and who I am currently am.
