Titled Littoral 3, this work relates to the shoreline between high and low tide and there’s a great variation in stasis and movement of the fins of each of the carefully crafted porcelain pieces. In general Nicholas’s work attempts to manifest qualities of shadows as representations of the hinterland between 2 and 3 dimensions and between presence and absence, making a material penumbra. These ideas have been informed by a lifetime of visiting and looking at the same stretch of Scottish coastline, bringing the realisation that the constant shift of tide, water and light mean the experience of perception is forever transient.
