About the Item
HIND LEGS
2020
Paris, France
Bold, hand-painted, serif typography on raw wood reads: ‘Hind Legs Adult.' Subtle primitive, animalistic, and sexual tones are injected in this piece. An abstract shape in the center, features ‘brutal’ in broken-up text. Work is painted on a piece of found wood, collected on the streets of Paris. Corners of the work are rounded, as pictured.
The painting is a collaboration with time, with the wood expressing significant signs of wear and aging, including some small nail holes as pictured. There is a slight curve making the shape somewhat concave, with the contortion of the surface adding to the primitive aesthetic of the work.
Artist recommends leaning against the wall due to the natural inclination of the wood, suspending it to the wall as an object, or having the piece professionally framed. Option to add d-hooks with wire for hanging, but will not sit completely flush to the wall. 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.

"Lus Osculi" (Abstract Black & White, Graphic Painting, Roman-inspired, Neutral)
By Nicholas Evans
Located in Paris, IDF
Drawing inspiration from the ancient Roman term "Los Osculi," translating to "right to kiss," the artist delves into a compelling exploration of the past's intriguing customs. In ancient Rome, women were prohibited from drinking as it was believed to lead to adultery and even possess abortifacient properties. Consequently, the husband and male family members of an "honest" woman possessed the right to kiss her on the mouth to ensure her sobriety. The allure of fleeting kisses, whispers of scent, and the sensuality of suspicion captivated the artist's imagination.
