Nailed: Dzine’s Elaborate Manicures

Inspired by the bootleg nail salon his mother set up in their West Chicago apartment, the artist Carlos (Dzine) Rolon’s work looks at fingernails as a canvas for fine art. He has installed temporary salons with a part-time manicurist at both Salon 94 gallery and the New Museum, and for his recent book, “Nailed by Dzine,” he enlisted photographers around the world to document contemporary nail art in their respective cities.
