Life on Venus | The Landscape, Timed Auction

"Predominant themes to Nicola’s work include the distorted memory of place, the mysticism and power of natural elements, the world as a sculpture park and, more recently, a fictional mythology around a goblin cowboy villain.

Many elements of her paintings stem from a fascination with natural forms; the way a cloud bubbles and shapeshifts from a wisp to a giant beast, the minuscule pores and crevices of a rock or a mineral, to the swollen udder of a mother cow.

Originally from the Cotswolds, Nicola studied Illustration at Camberwell College of Arts and now lives and works in Leipzig, Germany."
