Nicholas Devlin

"Nicholas Devlin is a sculptor making functional art in Brooklyn, New York. His work explores
ideas of ‘home’ and domesticity from an experimental perspective that aims to play with and
provoke your senses and subconscious, our shared cultural nostalgia, and imagined futures.
His work has been featured in Sight Unseen, Clever, Architectural Digest, Design Miami,
Domino, Surface, Hypebeast, Grazia, and more. He has exhibited work at Superhouse
Gallery in their Supergroup 2 show and the Supergroup 2.5 Show with The Attico, at the
MELT show with Adorno and HNH Gallery, and at IRL Gallery in their Remember to Keep
Looking show.
Nicholas’ work uses kitsch and campy elements in contemporary sculpture with the goal of
bringing an eccentric sense of play into one’s home. His pieces are usually brightly colored
with an ultra shine that looks slick to the touch. These range from surreal melting splatter
mirrors to shiny tubular furniture with anthropomorphic qualities, and he has more recently
been exploring spatial motifs of architecture, scale, and folklore.
He is currently working on some exciting new projects with more updates coming soon!
Before starting his own practice in 2021, He worked in architecture and has an educational
background in architecture and psychology. He received his Master’s degree in Architecture
and Urban Studies from the University of Cambridge in 2019 where he was able to research
meanings of home, domestic landscapes, and residential housing."
