Nick Bodimeade British, b. 1957

‘We go to the beach, we look and are looked at, we take photographs and later in viewing them re-imagine the experience – the image and the experience becoming fused together.’

For Nick, the beach and the photograph of the beach have equal status as subject, and when explored through his richly handled and formally articulate painting, a further layer of pleasurable looking, thinking and reflection is added.

Nick, after many years as a lecturer in Fine Art at a number of art colleges, now lives and works as a full time painter near Lewes in East Sussex. He exhibits widely in London and the South.
