Lives and works in Berlin (GER)

"Nicole Nickel studied painting under Friedemann Hahns at the Academy of Fine Arts, Mainz. At the beginning of the 90's she started to examine two main themes: architecture and the planar surface. While others speckled oil paint onto canvas or worked through their childhood dreams, she placed little geometrical houses onto light blue backgrounds. In her early work, objects without light and shadow float through an idealised sky. Sometimes there's a swimming pool next to a house; or at at other times a similarly symbolic house is placed nearby. However, rather than architecture, geometrical abstraction is the focus of Nickel's work. Instead of reducing her works to perspective illustration, Nicole Nickel uses techniques based around axonometry (where height, width and length are represented in equal measures and shifted onto three axes).(...)"
