With an eye for detail, Nicola Anthony sees the potential in the small things, which are collected and sculpted into something complex, intricate and fascinating. "For me the measure of an artwork is the amount of time it engages you for, and I aim to make work which is compelling to look at and able to engage its audience on many levels."
The work is tactile, intricate & multilayered, reflecting her fascination with traces, memory and the process of deconstructing and reconstructing the layers, perceptions and identities which are built up over time. Using diverse and unconventional materials and processes; collections of objects, images, sounds & patterns, she constructs complex and limitless pieces.
Nicola Anthony's most recent work concerns collection of biological images and an assemblage of identities, featuring in public and private collections in the UK and Europe. Materials such as glass, acrylics and resins allow light to infiltrate the work and introduce the interplay of shadows and refraction.
