About the Item
AUSPICE
2020
Paris, France
An auspice is a ‘prophetic sign’ which the artist was inspired by. This textured, abstract piece features a lying skull, looking up to the sky, immersed in a colorful base. Painted with oil paint, oil stick and acrylic, executed on an imperfect piece of wood, found on the streets of Paris.
The painting is a collaboration with time, as the wood expresses some signs of wear and aging, which is part of the aesthetic. Unframed; includes d-hooks and wire on back for hanging. Evans Deventer signature stamp features painting name, location of where work was done and year.

Nicholas Evans
Nicholas Evans is an American, Paris-based artist, designer and creative director. Painting is a cornerstone of Evans’s artistic expression, which is largely inspired by personal events, religious symbolism, and historical allegories.
In addition to traditional oil and acrylics, Evans uses materials such as plasters, wax, salt and found objects in his works, presenting a way to seek new meaning in elements that have collapsed or eroded over time. Threads of poetry convey the fragmented logic of suffering, lost love and redemption that push him to create.
After early success in New York’s fashion and creative industry — followed by nearly losing his life to addiction — a liver transplant gave way to a new perspective and allowed Evans to reinvent himself. Inspired to revisit the rudiments of expression through his first love of painting, Nicholas began working under the moniker of Evans Deventer to present his art.
Through Evans Deventer, he is continuously intrigued by the “decayed decadence” of long-held traditions and the looming past, and how to represent them visually. Evans Deventer is also represented as a brick and mortar space, which he designed in 2015, featuring furniture, jewelry and objects, in addition to artwork.
