Paintings
Nicholas Wyatt's painting practice encompasses both representational and abstract work, although he is mainly associated with Figurative painting.
His paintings, both figurative and abstract, some of which are large in scale, explore narratives of presence, particularly through the lens of Baroque religious iconography, examining how meaning and experience are communicated in religious paintings. Nicholas Wyatt's paintings employ various mediums, including oil on canvas and wax & pigment on panel, to create pieces that engage with themes of spirituality, perception and reception aesthetics.
Nicholas Wyatt's painting style often involves expressive brushwork and a dynamic use of colour to portray emotion and the emotional impact of light in the work. Through his paintings he aims to create an affective and experiential response in the viewer.
