Arts & Culture: Nicholas Hadeed
Nicholas Hadeed is a self-taught contemporary Caribbean artist based in Antigua. Nick’s portfolio encompasses a broad spectrum from abstract expressionism to realism.
His abstract landscapes and seascapes are influenced by the local environment as well as a desire for freedom of expression.
His vibrant, non-objective abstracts display high energy and strong emotion. Consistent with the idea of expressing on canvas what is perceived rather than what is real, Nick focuses on capturing atmosphere and mood. On many canvases, form plays but a secondary role to colour.
His canvases resonate with vivid colours creating a vibrancy and freshness that captivates the viewer.
Nick’s work is exhibited in galleries in Antigua and Barbados. In addition, many appear in private collections in the Caribbean, North America, the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia.
