THE DETAILSColour
An introspective exploration of botanicals, colour and human connection. Curated and crafted using the pigments aligning to a botanical theme.
Using the botanical theme chosen by the client, each artwork celebrates the colour and inherent qualities of each living element.
This bespoke collection features colours created through the use of raw natural inks and dyes. Layer upon layer of wash, build intensity - weaving the story of botanical colour through the medium of art.
“I’ve always been enchanted by colour. I think creating through colour is simply how I show up in the world – how I ‘do’ things and definitely how I think about and ‘see’ things”
— Nikki Heaton
PROVENENCE + MATERIALS Consciously Curated
Crafted with hands and heart: investing in honest materials and sustainable, transparent production.
Created holistically using only high quality, natural materials from sustainable sources, each artwork builds upon the client values, to create a calm and vitalising experience.
Each artwork promotes re-cycled, OEKO-TEX textiles, small-batch inks, and FSC certified hardwood; all placing high values on good design, detail, craftsmanship, layering and materiality.
“I’m captivated with how things are made, along with how they make me feel - to my hands and to my heart. All these things encompass my values as a person and a designer - and therefore my artwork.”
— Nikki Heaton
THE WORKSFORMQuiet, abstract geometric forms are created by the overlap and underlapping of textile layers. Stitch and embossing further accentuate relief and composition. A combination of clean pressed edges and raw stitched details add a quiet complexity.
STRUCTUREA 3 dimensional relief and essence is created over a deep edged canvas. Some forms are more prominent than others; whilst natural ink washes accentuate relief further. The result, a deeply structured and 3Dimensional essence on canvas.
COLOURLayers of raw natural ink washes in elemental hues create clean and natural shades whilst celebrating the pure and raw texture of the canvas. All colours have been conceptualised in conjunction with the client brief, however some depths and tonalities will differ with natural pigments.
