Stephen Nolan is an established multimedia artist based in Ireland who has exhibited his work throughout the UK, Ireland and France. Especially influenced by the Expressionist movements of the pre-war period and the aesthetic of European Fauvism, he employs similar bold colour and expressive form to explore ideas such as life and death, memory and history, architecture and society. His approach shifts from collage to oil on canvas and wood, and he maintains a balanced aesthetic signature throughout it all.
