Congratulations to Nicola Moss who has been selected as a finalist in the Kings School Art Prize for her work ‘Trees are the answer – Canopy cover’.
‘Probing the intersection of politics and ecology Nicola Moss' collage paintings highlight the importance of green spaces amid congested urban environments. Trees are the answer reflects on a curated ecology, a place where town planning, tree canopy policies and aesthetic, mixes with maintenance regimes, leisure and a sense of well-being. We shape nature and nature shapes us. I’m interested in how we can adapt city environments with plants and sustainable green spaces, to contribute to our well-being, both physical and mental.’ - Nicola Moss, Artist Statement
