ABOUT NADINE
Having lived in Auckland, London and now Melbourne, Nadine works across painting and graphic design. Her background in design brings an awareness of composition, balance and space to her practice, while painting allows her to explore a more instinctive way of working, following ideas as they emerge.

WORKING FROM MEMORY
Her paintings begin with what stays behind: the light of a particular afternoon, a place softened by distance, a feeling that returns unexpectedly. Moments spent alone, without distraction, inform this process.
Memories become starting points, shifting between the familiar and imagined as each work develops.

MATERIAL AND PROCESS
Colour, texture and gesture guide an exploratory approach to materials. Washes, drawn lines and layered marks build relationships across the surface, with space left for quieter passages. Each painting develops through a balance of intention and chance, allowing the process to shape the finished work.
