Mike Nicholls, born 1960 was an initial member of Roar Studios. His work practice covers painting, sculpture, drawing and printmaking.
Mike believes humanity is still tribal at heart. His art is an observation of the here and now, a heart-felt reflection upon his surrounds on a day to day basis.
Mike has slowly cultivated his practice; paring back and reducing it to an elemental visual vocabulary. He has developed a deeply personal and unique iconography, which speaks to us on a spiritual and primal level.
This exhibition is drawn from his personal collection, thematically based on the sea; it charters the ebb and flow of 18 years’
artistic development.
