Request Artwork - Lessons Learnt 2022 | Framed Set of Three (No Man Is An Island, Trust, Patience)
A continuation of Nic Joly's collection Lessons Learnt, which launched in mid 2022, this set of three artworks casts an eye on lessons of personal growth. An intimate look into the artist's life and work, this body of work is also highly relatable in its important messages around mental health including the stigma of men reaching out for support as well as practicing patience with yourself; adding to the beauty of this already magnificent 3D artwork.
Each piece has intricate hand-embellishments, from family inherited jewellery to grains of sand from Turkish beaches, which ensure that the artwork makes a powerful yet refined artistic statement in any interior. Learn more about the 3D artworks and their unique materials via the links below.
Included in this set are:
- No Man Is An Island | 49.5 x 49.5cm
- Patience | 49.5 x 49.5cm
- Trust | 43.5 x 49.5cm

The artist
Nic Joly
What began as Nic Joly's hobby has transformed into a passion for sculpting minute depictions of everyday life. The British artist's 3D wall sculptures tackle topics like love, sex, mental health and war in a touching and humorous way.
In 2024, we celebrated Nic Joly's tenth anniversary with Castle Fine Art and remembered the intricate details tell stories of moments lived, emotions felt, and a journey embarked upon. As Nic reflects on the last decade and his past creations, the spirit of experimentation and the passion for self-expression is a reminder that Nic's artwork is an extension of him and the thoughtful, considered miniature works he creates. Nic's 2024 collection,The Next Chapter, references Nic's evolving creative journey with his progressive techniques, unexplored themes, and sentiments yet to be unravelled and miniaturised. With renewed determination, Nic is ready to embark on The Next Chapter of his artistic journey.
