About the Item

OF CERULEAN 2024 Paris, France Named after a specific shade of blue, this painting portrays an abstracted, organic floral pattern. The floral shapes and shadows allude to both beauty and danger in an abstracted landscape. Cerulean blue dye on antique, natural linen, is graphically bold, yet delicate, offering a rich and neutral color palette. Linen is hand stretched. Antique linen is hand stretched. Evans Deventer stamp on back of canvas features name, year and place of the work, alongside artist, Nicholas Evans', signature. When Evans nearly lost his life to addiction, a liver transplant gave way to new perspective and allowed him to reframe 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.

"Set Us In Stone I" (abstract, blue, Parisian, graphic, bust on natural canvas)
By Nicholas Evans
Located in Paris, IDF
SET US IN STONE I 2022 Paris, France Originally created as part of Nicholas' solo exhibition "This, and Thereafter (Plumes)," December 10, 2022 - January 7, 2023. The theme illustrated the enigmatic uncertainty around what might happen after life. A range of paintings were presented – vibrant and ethereal – touching on different aspects of this notion. Each painting had a different point of view, oftentimes focusing around the inevitability of what is to come, and if and how it influences the present. This particular piece centers around personal legacy, how you will be remembered, and how your life vanishes into an abstraction as time goes by. This notion is visualized with a bust set in stone. The technique Evans used was a mixing of water-based ink with a hint of blue, that he knew would react when overlaid with white acrylic, pulling out a lighter hue of the blue ink. The white silhouette of a portrait set in stone creates a ghostly continuation of the underlaid pattern. Option to create a pair alongside "Set Us In Stone II" (as pictured). Price and size are per painting. Evans Deventer...
