Creating in Isolation Series Part VI A couple of years ago, I walked with my partner from Battersea Power Station to the Thames Barrier, one of the largest movable flood barriers in the world. It took us over four hours, mostly along the river stopping off for brunch and then tea and cake. We arrived at sunset, the sun's rays gilding the silver cylinders, as though lit by fire. The river looked glassy and unusually blue. Unfortunately, I no longer have the photographs and felt inspired to paint the memory suddenly reminding me of the exquisite experience, whilst in isolation. Breaking through the barriers is poignant during this world crisis... As Reagan once said... “There are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect.” CREATING IN ISOLATION SERIES I began creating this series of artwork a week before the official lockdown when I self-quarantined after having visited Venice. A deep exploration of seeking comfort during a world crisis; creating a relieving beauty during a global depression. Inspiration taken from my travel memories, places I’ve indulged all my senses, adventure, exploration; experiences I appreciate even more now than ever. Immanuel Kant once affirmed, “Ingratitude is the essence of vileness.”

THE ART OF CREATING, CREATING ARTISTICALLY, IS ABOUT DISCOVERING THE SURROUNDING BEAUTY AND BEING ABLE TO COMMUNICATE THE MOMENT VISUALLY. A PERFECT REPRESENTATION OF ANYTHING IS EXCEEDINGLY INTANGIBLE. In April 2015, I mustered all of my courage to depart from the corporate world and embark on a creative adventure with photography and art. Since 2013, I had first started developing the brand BeanOn Photography and now Nicola Ann Art, specialising in professional Travel, Architectural & Dental Photography and creating Abstract Art & Fine Art Photography. When exploring I use all of my senses; a purely sensory experience that begs to be revelled in, observed in its finer detail. The sound of a wave crashing; the extensive shades of blue and green of the sea, the sky; the smells of an ocean; a wave’s force and foam’s caress on bare flesh; the taste of the salt from my fingers; different textures of beach sand, the accidental crunch of sand between my teeth, the golden, bronze, white colours of the sand; a child laughing. A stillness only found in the African bushveld; the crunching of vegetation beneath hiking boots; a wild animal’s roar, buffalo horns crashing together in battle; the colours of the earth, of the bush, the yellow of the fever trees, the feel of its powdered bark in the palm of my hand, the prick of a thorn; a setting ball of fire over the silhouetted scrubland, the sun heating my face when the sun rises; the smells of leaves and flowers, a bush fire, the pungent smell of sugarcane burning yet accompanied with a feeling of comfort, the sweet nectar of raw liquid sugar; the aroma of freshly chopped mangoes, coconut, passion fruit; the colours of the fruit each bursting with a different flavour. It is all-consuming, and I permit the currents of life to move within me, inhabit the discovery as a whole; to mingle mind and senses and absorb the beauty of the living into being within me.
