I'm Nadine, I am a Fine Art BA (Hons) student currently studying at university, with a practice focused on painting and mixed media.

I feel most confident working with acrylic paint, coloured pencil, and collage, and I enjoy experimenting with how these materials can work together.

My interest in art comes from exploring colour, texture, and composition, often drawing inspiration from both everyday objects and visual references around me. Through my practice, I aim to continue developing my technical skills while building a personal visual language that feels thoughtful, vibrant, and contemporary.

THE EVERYDAY

FOR EY-UP AND COMING BA FINE ART DEGREE SHOW

My current art practice is focused on The Everyday is a visual inventory of the small things that shape my days, a drink, a hairband, utensils, lighting, etc.. all arranged, cataloged, and re-seen. my practice sits between still life, installation, and photographic collage: I photograph intimate, domestic objects against soft textiles, then interrupt those images with painted gestures, cropped grids, and saturated color fields.​I am interested in how repetition, color and scale can reframe the ordinary into something uncanny and worth looking at. By isolating commonplace items and treating them as relics or icons, the work asks: what do we carry through a day, and why do some things matter more than others? The bright palettes and material play glossy surfaces against bold solid backgrounds, precise grids beside loose brushwork are attempts to make visible the emotional weight of routines and rituals.​These pieces are both archive and invitation: small, staged moments that hold memory, comfort, and humour. My aim is simple to slow the viewer down, to make the overlooked feel deliberate, and to insist that the everyday is, quietly, full of meaning.
