Nobrow Press is delighted to present this 36 page hardback monograph of Nick White’s most recent collection of works. It also represents our first in a brand new series called Monobrow. People I’ve Never Met and Conversations I’ve Never Had collects 32 original illustrations from Nick’s latest body of work.
Nick White’s use of vintage magazines and found material to create surreal and humorous imagery evokes a nostalgia for the golden years of printed ephemera. Portraits of fictitious characters and graphical records of bizarre conversations that have never happened fill the full colour book. On each page Nick skillfully creates surreal and playful anecdotes in his unique style of layered painted patterns and carefully selected paper cut-outs. His work, sometimes child-like in it’s optimism and at other times very sophisticated in it’s form of construction, is aesthetically engrossing and entertaining in equal measure.
