About this artwork

Fragment in Yellow is a bold and meditative abstract work. Inspired by a deep fascination with ancient manuscripts, archaeological scrolls, and forgotten records of the past, this piece reflects a visual language of erosion, preservation, and silent storytelling.

At the heart of the composition lies a field of yellow—weathered, soft-edged, and textured like aged parchment—floating against a dark, moody background. The work balances simplicity of… form with complexity of surface, drawing the viewer in to notice fine cracks, tonal shifts, and marks of the artist’s hand.

The canvas has generous painted borders to allow for flexible presentation. It can be either stretched on wooden bars (with plenty of painted canvas to go around the sides - overall canvas material size is 150cm x 114cm and actual artwork size is 144cm x 98 cm. It can be stretched on 120cm x 80cm bars) or mounted in a frame.

Credentials

Works on commission

Nicholas Molloy, a painter trained in illustration and experienced across countries, works primarily in acrylics, meticulously building and sanding back layers to create rich, textured surfaces. His style ranges from “abstract architectural” pieces highlighting geometric interplay and industrial motifs, to expressive landscapes of the Scottish coast and playful, naive botanicals. Using a reductive technique that reveals ghostly, weathered traces beneath his compositions, he seeks to evoke balance, discovery, and dynamic visual intrigue—inviting viewers to find new details and feel a harmonious tension between structure and organic unpredictability.
