ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Portuguese folk culture is expressed in the elaborate decoration applied to the sponge fishing boats of Aveiro. The structure of this painting relies on an elaborate interplay of predominantly curved shapes which allow for a flowing passage for the eye through a complex of counterbalancing directional forces. Unlike in many of my paintings, there is very little in the way of cast or attached shadows, with the result that pattern much more than pictorial space characterises the painting. The painting's subject matter gives rise to questions about the nature and possibilities of different types and styles of depiction.

Nick Hais
United Kingdom
Nick Hais was born in Northern Ireland in 1948, but he spent most of his childhood in Dorset and Devon. After leaving school he went to Art College in Newcastle. Nick has been a full time painter since 1976, living and working in Dorset since 1979. "I enjoy the sort of light that is so rich and vibrant that it is very brightly reflected from surfaces, with the result that living shadows are created. I use this quality as it relates to objects and scenes that display an inherent geometry, such as buildings, boats, tables and chairs.. The result is that my paintings are structured compositions of enhanced clarity. My paintings are built up in layers of thin paint. This means that they develop slowly, as this way of painting requires a degree of precision. It is rather an uncompromising method. All my paintings are produced using acrylic paint, almost always on canvas."
