In Abstract Connotations, Hincksman explores human nature and our interactions with the natural environment., in the face of rapid changes due to the advancement of technology and social change.
Hicksman’s practice allows the simplicity of everyday thoughts and experiences to inspire the paintings. The process can be quite dynamic between contemplation and the use of colour, form and tone, along with the fluidity of paint with various forms of mark making.
The intent of the exhibition is to inspire respect for our common humanity and further explore our capacity to relate to one another. Secondly, to explore the beauty and the power of our natural environment. Hicksman’s vivid canvasses imagine ways of living harmoniously with each other, amongst our own creations, in the awe-inspiring natural environment we inhabit.
