About Nicholas Folland

Artists statement                                                                                   

While my practice generally highlights an anxiety for potential failure in everyday activity, the primary work considers this notion through a relationship between the controlled space of domestic dwelling and the unpredictable chaos of the natural environment. By forcing everyday appliances to a point of excess, and by colliding their practical application with their inherent reference to naturally occurring forces, I attempt to highlight a fragile relationship to the world, and to shift our perceived sense of stability and security within the home.
