Nick White

Nick White's use of vintage magazines and found material to create surreal and humorous imagery evokes a nostalgia for the golden years of printed ephemera. Portraits of fictitious characters and graphical records of bizarre conversations fill this full-colour book. On each page White skilfully recounts surreal and playful anecdotes in his unique style of layered painted patterns and carefully selected paper cut-outs. His work, sometimes childlike in its optimism and at other times very sophisticated, is aesthetically engrossing and entertaining in equal measure.
