Heather Nicol
"Salon 13" is a collection of 13 small mixed media pieces with electric lighting

2015

About the Item

“Salon (13)“ is a collection of 13 small-scale works by artist Heather Nicol. The installation of 13 assemblages is variable. The artist will personally consult with the buyer and can be on site for the installation. The 13 mixed media pieces include delicate lighting elements that shift and change via arduino electronic devices, or utilize picture lights throwing a soft roll of light across the artwork. These works are linked through their wiring, which is enveloped in a white umbilical cord-like fabric casing, creating an organic, unifying code of display. Heather Nicol is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice includes immersive sound installation, small-scale discrete object making, and independent curating. Her large site-specific interventions explore the architectural, sonic, historic and operational conditions across a wide range of locations. These include concourse atriums, rail terminus, lobbies, a theatre, a public school building, a theme park, and a sweat shop. An interest in points of connection and intersection link these threads. Nicol has created projects in Canada, the US, Germany and France. She completed her Honors BFA at The School of Visual Art, NYC, her MA at New York University, and her MFA at OCAD University, Toronto.
