An Artist-Led Practice
Abstract painting is a system, not an image
THE COLOUR NEST is an artist-led studio grounded in abstract painting.
The work is built through nearly two decades of continuous practice, a period shaped by experimentation, reduction, and a sustained inquiry into how colour and form operate beyond representation. Painting is approached as a system rather than an image: a space where balance, tension, and internal relationships are developed slowly and deliberately.
This foundation remains central. Every decision made within the studio, whether on canvas or in object form, begins with the same discipline: clarity before decoration.
From Painting to Art Object
Translation through reduction, not reproduction.
Objects produced by THE COLOUR NEST are not inspired by art; they are derived from it. Each painting functions as an origin. Through processes of cropping, reduction, and re-composition, selected fragments are translated into objects designed for living spaces. This translation is intentional and restrained. The aim is not replication, but continuity.
By preserving the internal logic of the original work, its pressure, rhythm, and proportion, the object becomes an extension of the painting rather than a decorative surface. What remains essential is allowed to carry forward.
A Living Space in Progress
Where painting, objects, and architecture coexist.
Alongside the studio practice, THE COLOUR NEST is developing a long-term project: a dedicated show house, built from the ground up. This space is conceived as a living environment rather than a showroom, a place where paintings, objects, and materials coexist within architecture. It will function as a physical manifestation of the studio's philosophy: how abstraction lives, not just how it is displayed.
The showhouse is an ongoing process. It evolves alongside the work, collecting pieces over time and allowing them to exist in context, not as products, but as part of a spatial language.
Continuity, Not Collection
THE COLOUR NEST is not structured around seasonal drops or trend cycles. It exists to support a long-term artistic practice, one that allows painting to extend into everyday life without losing its authority. Editions and objects are developed selectively, in limited quantities, with close attention to material, proportion, and restraint.
The studio collaborates with architects, designers, and cultural partners who value clarity and longevity, guided by a single question: what remains when the image is reduced? The answer defines the work.
