My son was on the beach leaning over picking up stones and throwing them into the air. Something in the movement of his body with the sweeping down and then arching up inspired me to create a body of work, from which this is drawn. His body is relaxed and unselfconscious and the pose is balletic in its fluidity. In this work I removed context and while retaining the grain of the original photo I contrasted this with an obviously flattened and manipulated background and context hence bringing into awareness the naturalness and unfiltered source material, in the original photo and in my son.

Nikki Willson works as a new media artist, video installation artist and photographer exploring issues of figuration, identity and otherness. Nikki has exhibited in a range of local and international art events and solo and group shows and her work has been acquired by private collectors and commissions. “Our lives exist within a world of constant movement and distraction. We are in constant negotiation between the space that we occupy and our own internal dialogue. There are moments however when everything becomes still and quiet. It is this sense of being outside of time that I am trying to capture in my work. I am also interested in mental health and neurodiversity, exploring issues of memory and identity. By manipulating the digital image I combine photography and painting to remove context and create narrative ambiguity. This ambiguity requires the viewer to fill the narrative space surrounding the work.
