Mixed Media, Color on Paper
Size: 17 W x 17 H x 0.5 D in
This Giclee limited edition print is digital collage, made up from pastel drawings, found images and digital manipulation. The theme for the work is around the idea of masculinity and what’s ‘expected’ of young boys and men. Bravado, the need to be tough, fight and not show emotions. The two boys play fight outside on a concrete yard. One of the boys is a sensitive soul, he day dreams about playing cat’s cradle like his sister and her girlfriends do. He imagines flowers and swans creeping up out of the cracks in the yard, growing tall, taking over the space, as though in a dream, escaping his uncomfortable feelings at having to be ‘manly’, and play along with the fighting games and what these can lead to.

I am a mixed media artist currently working within the realms of miniature installation, collage and print. Small scale detailed constructions, reminiscent of Victorian peepshows, draw the viewer via a tiny aperture, into fully realised environments. Working predominantly with found objects to create theatrically charged narratives, my work is often surreal, full of symbolism, playfulness, humour, tension, sexual charge, and a search for beauty and deeper meaning. “Nina’s work is utterly compelling - it has that rare quality of holding dark, playful and ethereal elements all at once. She fashions unique shimmering works in her obscura tins that hold secrets to discover.... in this way her art joyfully celebrates old fashioned industrial / commercial function and form whilst also offering a journey into the sublimely whimsical and surreal” China Moo Young, TV & film director ninamankin.tumblr.com www.ninamankin.co.uk
