Nicholas Evans
"Rubber Jungle II" (abstract, modern, bold, black & white, sculptural diptych)

2022

About the Item

RUBBER JUNGLE II 2022 Paris, France A graphic and bold abstract painting. Primarily black and white acrylic painted on canvas. Neutral and modern, with loose, playful and energetic movement. Inspired by childhood interpretations of shapes in the dark - there is a sense of unknown when the imagination takes over. Subtle color comes into play with accents of Indian ink, dried terra cotta pigment and sage green paint. Option to create a pair alongside "Rubber Jungle I" (as pictured). Price and size are per painting. Evans Deventer stamp and signature on back. We are happy to offer subsidized shipping options. -- Nicholas Evans (b. 1982) is an American, Paris-based artist, designer and creative director. Painting is a cornerstone of Evans’ 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 new perspective and allowed Evans 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. 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.

  • "Set Us In Stone II" (abstract, pink, women, Parisian, graphic, bust, natural)
    By Nicholas Evans
    Located in Paris, IDF
    SET US IN STONE II 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 pink, that he knew would react when overlaid with white acrylic, pulling out a lighter hue of the pink 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 I" (as pictured). Price and size are per painting. Evans Deventer...
