My name is Nicole Lord I am 21 years of age and currently a student studying fine art at central college Nottingham.

My main area of specialism is sculptural artwork, mostly working with conceptual ideas. My themes are often based on class structure and values. Such as my last piece was based on working class family holidays.

I commonly use ceramics and mould making to create my work and make replicas of low-value ‘tacky’ objects. This helps me to explore ideas of value, class, and visual trickery. My main inspirations are Jeff Koons , who creates art based on value and Grayson Perry who works very strongly with class. I wish to develop my practice further by thinking more deeply into these subjects and explore more aspects of them.
