Nicola has a
studio in Richmond, London and in Nevis,
Caribbean. In London she teaches art, pottery and makes her own
sculpture. In Nevis she creates her collages, exhibits her pictures and
gathers inspiration. The cards are a new venture which bridge the two
worlds.
‘Objets trouvé’ are used in all her
creative
processes. In her clay coiled sculptures she uses buttons, wire, woven
fabric, pill packets and glass to decorate her work. The marks form
part of the private language of the sculpture, informing anyone who
looks closely about its cultural inspiration.
In her art teaching she illustrates how to do frottage and make
alternative painting tools using household packaging.
The collaged works, including the collecting and sifting of the plastic
and frayed rope along the Atlantic coast in Nevis commemorate each
visit to the Carbbean with her family.
