Reclamation

Reclamation (2022)

Nicky Huxham

Around sixty large and small rectangles of copper pinned together to form a square. The rectangles of copper are tarnished with different colours - black / green and maroon purple and copper.

Creating "Reclamation" marked the end of making six large copper panels. It was the final piece, and I was frustrated with using scraps and the time it took. A friend visited my studio, saw it, and urged me not to paint on it. I didn't get why until I took a proper look and saw its raw beauty for the first time.
