Nikki Davidson-Bowman
East Sussex
I am a conceptual artist & curator working with found photographs, ephemera, words & natural things to explore female stories of resilience. I expose the darker sides of life, blurring the semi-autobiographical with fiction to highlight the precariousness of being human, to start conversations & connections with others about silent happenings, such as terminal illness, infertility, dementia & hearing loss.
Research & the process of making are fundamental to my practice, where rules & repetition often feature; developing intriguing installations, interventions, sculptures, collages, prints & poetry, injecting life into, often, discarded materials as a body for storytelling.
