Nicola Whayman

In my journey as an artist, I strive to harmonise my work with the beauty of nature, utilising local resources and sustainable materials. I continue to challenge my practice and the products used to find the balance between caring for and expressing my response to the environment. Each piece I create is a reflection of my research and sensory experiences, capturing the essence of my surroundings. By incorporating hand stitching, drawing, and repurposing fibres, I allow myself the time to reflect and connect deeply with my environment. Ultimately, my practice not only nurtures my creativity but also supports my mental well-being through the act of creating and engaging with nature.
