Nick Denambride is a French contemporary artist based in Hong Kong SAR, producing abstract expressionist paintings, layered with street and pop art elements.

With roots based in graphic design and street art, his work frequently incorporates lines, phrases, pop culture icons, giving rise to more expressive or lyrical compositions.

His abstract paintings explore solidity, texture and composition; they are frequently executed in an expressive manner allowing focus and direction. The powerful and striking structural forms in Denambride’s work of art concentrate on quality such as harmony and simplicity. He believes that when focusing only on his instictive strokes or layers, he allows his emotion to be expressed directly to the viewer, channeling a connection to be made without distractions.

Ranging from clean lines to more free-flowing expressive forms, they are built up in textured layers with an emphasis on the energy that is poured into the composition at every stage of the process. He believes that the story’s emotional impact is also enhanced by an uneven surface.

When layering a portrait on his abstract foundation, Denambride brings his art to another level. Looking at a portrait by Denambride, is to experience a glimpse into the soul of his subjects. Each person portrayed in his deep, textured work tells a story about their lives, the emotion that was present at the time, the surroundings they were in, and a sypathteic understanding of the human condition and its individuality. “We all have stories,” Denambride says,.
Denambride, who describes his portraits as “soulful”, uses his paintings as a window into diverse cultures and spheres of society. He says, “I admire and fear the relationship between people and their culture.

“The different emotions, gestures, moods, environments, and style of people in my life and those that I cross paths with or observed through the media, all fuel my narrative. My art consistently centers on the viewer’s emotional response to the subject matter.
