I am currently exploring humankind’s relationship with Earth through an ongoing series of transparent sculptures & photographs entitled “Potentialities”. I create transparent sculptures - using found objects and original artworks - to explore the world of human constructs, objects, ideas, and events. Each artwork visualizes an aspect of the question: what is the value of human experience, and our manufactured lifestyles, as balanced against environmental impact? These sculptures have a dual existence as photographs that document site-specific installations. I patiently study the play of light and color refracting through the clear objects in search of a transformative moment to photograph - one in which the invisible sculptures are substantiated by the life-giving light & color of the natural world. Each photograph becomes a timeless portal for contemplating the impact that humans exert upon the natural world; where I can imagine the subject’s past, present, and future - from the ‘a-ha’ moment of inception to it’s faded memory; clear metaphors for the ultimate importance of a healthy planet as a prerequisite for human survival.

Nicholas Papadakis is a Brooklyn-based artist currently exploring humankind’s relationship with Earth through an ongoing series of transparent sculptures & photographs entitled “Potentialities”. Papadakis creates transparent sculptures to explore the world of human constructs: objects, ideas, and events. Each artwork visualizes an aspect of the question: what is the value of human experience, and our manufactured lifestyles, as balanced against environmental impact? These sculptures have a dual existence as photographs that capture singular moments within a site-specific installation. “I patiently study the play of light and color refracting through the clear objects, I am in search of a transformative moment to photograph - one in which the tangible sculptures are rendered insubstantial and hallucinatory - one in which I can imagine the subject’s past, present, and future - from the ‘a-ha’ moment of inception to it’s faded memory.” Each photograph becoming a timeless space for contemplating the impact that humans exert upon the natural world - metaphors for the ultimate importance of a healthy planet as a prerequisite for human survival.
