NICOLE
For me, there is painting and then there is the outside world. I have immersed myself in painting; my work has become an imagined world where I possess control, develop rules and systems, and organize chaos. My paintings are a series of steps I take to express my concept of place and utter love for the action of making. In the dialogue with my work, I display my unconscious mind, my emotional state, my primal landscape, my process and hand. Paired with my investigation into how our identities are affected when we are constantly displaced and forced to adapt to new environments, I feel I begin to understand little by little what is at the core of my work today. My works are a timeline of experiences, a constant, in an ever-changing world.
