Nicola White

I am a self-taught artist with a passion for using found objects in my artwork. The objects I use have been collected along the banks of the River Thames and the River Medway. As a Thames mudlark, I discover objects daily with a story behind them and I love the idea of giving these lost or discarded objects new life in a piece of art. Each item I use has a past history and a secret story. I like for the person looking at the artwork to see beyond the superficial nature of the art, and for their imagination to go on a journey as they imagine the person who last touched that clay pipe, or where the fragment of glass or pottery came from.
