The Modern Institute/Toby Webster Ltd
Still Life, Gold and Peeling Paint

Painting is the starting point for all Nicolas Party’s works. Applying colour to different surfaces – paper, canvas, walls and objects – allows him to produce a range of work from paintings to site-specific installations. Typically producing still-life and landscape paintings, Party utilises a regular vocabulary of figurative elements – pots, food, mountains and trees – interpreted using the tropes of cubes, cylinders, cones, spheres and pyramids. Using this consistent formal vocabulary, he makes a hierarchy of decorative patterns, resulting in frieze-like paintings, which are concurrently representational and fantastical. These works repeatedly interrogate the language of forms central to his practice.
For ReMap 3 Nicolas Party will produce a site-specific installation of wall drawings throughout the building he is occupying. Considering the peeling paint of the various walls, he will produce a show, which will look at the ephemeral aspect of an artwork as well as the idea of nostalgia. The effect of time on the space will be used as narrative and metaphorical starting point for the exhibition.
