In Impossible Depth, Nicola Scott explores ‘holography’, a three-dimensional illusionary technique that records the liquidity and reflective ability of layered light waves and colour, onto a 2D picture plane. The curious, multilayered textures contained in each work suggest traces of plastic, brushes, alternating opacity and gesture. Due to the depth created by interlocking and overlaying shapes and hues, each work implies an impossible depth, forms appear to hang in non-existent space.
