A handmade, studio edition wall sculpture by Nic Joly.

Cutting shapes or something else? You decide in this fun and hilarious handmade, studio edition wall sculpture by Nic Joly. The miniature bunting was made by cutting each individual triangle out of tissue paper while the disco outfits have also been meticulously made through layers of paint, glitter and glue. What's more, real pharmaceutical drugs feature in this wall sculpture next to a lump of plaster coated with 12-15 layers of powder from stone dust to flaked polystyrene; a quirky homage to the level of celebrations that predate the UK lockdowns,

For Summer 2021, Nic reflected on his experience of the last 65 weeks in the UK. He ponders that "When we all woke up on the 23rd March 2020 none of us could really understand how our whole world was about to change forever.  We were all suddenly given a focus, a spotlight on our lives and the world we live in because of a global crisis.   This body of work was born out of this experience and fact, but is not lead by it.  I don’t see this as a lockdown collection.  I see it as a sketch book of thoughts, observations, emotions and rethinkings born during our 65 weeks of national lockdowns."

Described by the popular artist as his "most personal collection", you can read more about 65 Weeks on our blog or shop the artist's full portfolio here.

About

About

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.
