Artist’s statement

Nicola Rowley graduated from Wirral Metropolitan College in 2002 with a First Class BA Honours Degree in Fine Art.
Whilst studying I was joint prize winner in the Wirral Spring and Photography Exhibition (2000). In 2003 I was runner up in the Daily Mail Weekend competition ‘Not the Turner Prize’. In 2007 I was second prize winner in the Chester Grosvenor Museum Biennial Open Exhibition. I was also invited to exhibit in the Chester Grosvenor Museum Exhibition Face Value ‘Portraits in Public and Private’ in 2010.
My art is about connections and relationships: the connections between and within people, the relationships between light and dark, colour and tone. I am exploring how emotions and intimacy can be portrayed.
