Nicola Beattie: Quiet Remains
Forthcoming exhibition
Overview
Rooted in the ancient landscapes of Pembrokeshire, Nicola Beattie’s sculptures speak of endurance and fragility—carved forms that hold the memory of the land.
Nicola Beattie draws inspiration from the enduring presence of Pembrokeshire’s ancient landscapes—its standing stones, ruined castles, and weathered relics where time seems to pause. Through her practice, Nicola explores the dialogue between peace and conflict, endurance and fragility. Her carved forms, at once strong and contemplative, hold the memory of the land: textured surfaces bearing traces of struggle, smooth planes offering moments of calm. Charred archways and lyrical pillars suggest both darkness and refuge, reflecting a balance between human history and natural stillness. Nicola’s sculptures invite a quiet encounter—an immersion into presence, memory, and the timeless beauty of what remains.
