Richard Nicholls is a Worcester based artist.
“My work is mainly project based, making series of images which work together within a theme or concept, or which respond to an underlying real-world issue or concern. I make work using digital and photographic techniques, exploring topics around equality, technology and the environment.
“More recently, I have been interested in releasing work in different forms, moving away from just producing prints to hang in frames or post online. This includes video, projected imagery and making small-run, hand-made photo books and zines.
“My practice is constantly evolving – driven by curiosity, experimentation and the challenge of always making something new. I enjoy the process of creating as much as producing the final image.”
My current thinking:
Fascinated with: the online 24-hour news cycle, data, digital processes that emulate analogue techniques, old tech, imperfection and flaws, grids, pattern and repetition, negative space and shadows, shapes of the natural world.
Work style: design driven, abstract, graphic, geometric, layered, textured, meticulous yet embracing imperfection.
As a professional artist and photographer, I also use my experience to help other artists by providing an artwork photography service. Having sharp, crisp and vibrant images that show off your work at its very best is an essential way of promoting your artwork.
Richard works from a studio space as part of the Worcester Arts Collective in the centre of Worcester. Please get in touch if you’d like to arrange a studio visit.
