Hard Drive - Nicolas Atkins

Hard Drive - NICOLAS ATKINS

Edition of 150

Published by The Holster in the second instalment of Demand & Supply, a print-on-demand project first initiated for the NYC Zine Fest, and expanded upon for the NY Art Book Fair held from October 2-4, 2009 at P.S.1.

The New York-based artist's work spans the gamut of mediums: painting, drawing, ceramics, video, sound, etc, and has recently been especially centered around ancient Greek and Roman mythology. "As a kid I had this Greek mythology book that had a major influence on me," Atkins explains. "It taught me how to draw and a lot of heavy life lessons. That’s kind of the point of mythology, to explain the unexplainable to people. So I’ve been using that as inspiration."
