Biography

Nicky Young has spent the best part of her life growing up in a field in Wiltshire, before uprooting and embarking on a long journey north to Manchester where she has resided since 2001.

In 2008 Nicky completed a photography degree at Manchester Metropolitan University. The three years she spent there culminated in a series of concept based images entitled Luna Kitchen (artist's statement).

Nicky takes her inspiration from anything and everything between the green fields of the country to the bright lights of the city. She focuses mainly on the abstract and is particularly interested in the themes of colour, texture and light.
