About The Artwork

Octopus Ashes 42 x 76.5" Mixed Media on Paper. 2020 - Through my paintings, I evoke a surrealistic space in which the possibilities of the future become tangible through the process of imagination. By utilizing my ability to paint and dream, I create paintings that evoke a watery sensibility through a whimsical space. I dream of a future world that is fluid. A world that glitters with the essence of pride. Through painting marbled pools or expansive oceans, I imagine a watery space that is airy, and blue; a space that glimmers within the shadow of ultraviolence, and luminescence of queer waters. My work embodies the vision of a queer liberated body, exemplifying gay pride. Hence, manifesting my own vision of an empowered queer future. * Colors and details may vary from digital photograph to original artwork. All images copyright © of Nicole Melnicky.
