LORA NIKOLOVA
Lora Nikolova is an Australian artist who was born in Munich in 1985. She is currently based b t between th UK and the d Bulgaria. B l i Mainly concerned with spatial awareness, Nikolova’s paintings tackle problems of creating ti th illusion the ill i off depth d th on a twot dimensional support. Beginning with bleach and liquid media, she creates marks across un-primed c<anvas. A layering and cropping process follows, f ll with ith films fil off paint i t successively i l laid over the surface. Ultimately the works are highly layered, transparent and glossy, giving the impression of multiple dimensions. Alterations in light and location subtly transform the appearance of the work throughout the day. These transient effects th themselves l create t new ‘images’ ‘i ’ and d perpetually change the artwork’s state of being.
