Artist Statement:
Curriculum vitae

Nicholas Stedman was born in
Portsmouth in the United
Kingdom. After graduating
from the University of
Cambridge and obtaining a PhD
in biochemistry from the
University of Paris, he opted
to become an artist in 1985.
The human body has always been
at the centre of his research.
Enigmatic or emblematic,
static or moving figures haunt
his paintings
Inspired by the work of
American Choreographers such
as Merce Cunningham or Lucinda
Childs, he has developed a
pictorial system that attempts
to attenuate all emotional,
psychological or narrative
considerations. This has led
to an irreversible breakdown
in the picture space.
The human figure is now
transcribed into materials in
a game of declinations, each
fragment gaining relief from
the others so that the whole
work is sufficient in itself.
The recomposed universe of
Nicholas Stedman now offers
itself to the public like a
story to be retold though its
sense and order are forever
obscure.
