Nanoshima Collection is a set of original hand drawn studies using a multi-layered combination of digital and mixed media. A reductionist exploration of the cat’s form capturing the essence of our most beloved animal in as few strokes as possible, each piece a study in restraint. These gestural drawings intentionally prioritise essence and energy over perfection. 

This collection pays homage to the mystery, intrigue and meditative beauty of the cat. Stripping away excess allows stillness and contemplation, a quiet meditation on the cat’s  intelligent elegance. Each piece attempts to capture their perspective while going about their daily explorations and routines, in a world we see only a measure of and only partly understand.
