Nick Smith x Bowie... Charity Auction

I’m excited to share that I’m participating in the inaugural Sound & Vision charity auction, organised by Art on a Postcard, with all proceeds supporting War Child. The brief for this event was to create an artwork inspired by David Bowie's lyrics, and here is my interpretation...

"Electric Blue is a nod to David Bowie’s Sound and Vision, inspired by the lyric, 'electric blue.' After much deliberation, I had a lightbulb moment—it felt like the perfect fit for the exhibition’s brief. I’ve always wanted to create a light box, and this was the ideal opportunity. This piece captures my interpretation of the hue electric blue, with the illumination inviting viewers to experience the vibrant spirit of Bowie’s aura and reflect on the powerful connection between music and visual art.”
