Profile

I would consider my work to be Lyrical, Abstract Expressionism. Art that is described as free, emotive, with personal compositions unrelated to objective reality. I think that there is a difference that should be noted, a person’s nature is a part of reality. My work is part of my nature and a meditation.

Additionally, as a student of psychology my work considers how the arts can be useful in promoting healing and aligning with changes in societies, worldwide. ‘We are so adept at recognising and creating natural patterns: we embody some of the very patterns that are ubiquitous in the natural world in which we evolved.’

I use bold colours while also reverting back to colours of nature and my surroundings. A combination of pouring paint, on the floor, also adding detail later while the canvases are on the wall. An immersive approach allows me to become a physical part of the work while I create, while also allowing space to be meditative and, of the moment, working instinctively. This meditation is self care and with intention that my work inspires inner peace, tranquility and healing. Enquiries please email: nicolas.james@mail.com
