The work Anne Faith Nicholls really inspires me. This is a selection from her most recent exhibition entitled NeoFolk. I find the very nostalgic sentimental side of her work very appealing. This perhaps comes from her largely autobiographical referencing in her work. Her work makes up a kind of visual diary of her life. She uses oils, acrylics on distressed wood to create a style that is reminiscent of early colonial settlers.
I also like the way she mixes several scenes or narratives together, and lots of different visual imagery juxtaposed against one another to create a busy and diverse narrative. They are very surreal and almost haunting.
Neofolk, which opened at La Luz de Jesus Gallery, LA on September 5th, is her first solo exhibition.
