Artist Spotlight: Nina Molloy

A selection of recent works by artist Nina Molloy. Born in Bangkok and currently based in London, Molloy draws from photographic and printed materials that relate to her Thai and British heritage. Through repeated acts of translation—photograph to print, textile to painting—Molloy creates compositions that explore how domestic materials, such as curtains and bed sheets, evoke embodied memory and transformation. Her use of muted colours and impressionistic layering speaks to the fading of memory and the instability of representation:

“I paint places and things that I’d like to see clearly, to experience and enter into. Once materialized, I can go into it with my body and new things emerge. They remind me that I compose the world I see, and being moved by some impact of that world, the way I’m seeing it changes.”
