This exciting chapter in the visual narrative of Nic Joly harnesses the public candour of street art within the refinement of fine art. Balancing stylised subtlety with bold statements, Nic once again delivers his recognisable punch of humour.
Much like the graffiti we walk past on a daily basis, Nic uses the art that hangs on the walls of his collectors’ homes to bring his message into the public forum. It is both a means of broadcasting the lessons he’s learned and a constant affirmation to stay busy and keep positive.
From animals in formaldehyde to COVID antigen tests, artists have used weird and wonderful materials to create art throughout history. Ancient civilisations would adorn themselves with animal bones, and many modern artists are incorporating recycled materials into their work to support environmentalism.
Art, like humour, has the inspiring ability to unite, spark conversation and evoke emotion. We invite you to dive into joy and laughter with our curated selection of trending satirical and sarcastic artworks, featuring pieces from Billy Connolly, James McQueen and Peter Smith. Browse our collectors' favourites below.
