acrylic on jute
112 x 198.5 cm,44 x 78 in
We are pleased to present Onion Skin, Oscar Nimmo's first solo presentation with Nasha Gallery. Two years in the making, the works will be on display in our new Haymarket location.
Oscar Nimmo (b. 1993) is an Eora (Sydney) based artist whose work explores the communicative possibilities of non-representational form. His paintings and drawings use an iterative drawing process that plays on our pre-existing relationships to shape and the associations they evoke.
With each composition there may be traces of language, people, objects or memories that arise and contribute to an emotional response. Cognisant modes of thinking are bypassed in favour of an intuitive and personal understanding of the work.
