Nicholas Cope has been painting since the early 1980’s.

While at the Royal College of Art Nicholas studied the geometric principles and symbolisms governing Traditional Art, in particular Islamic Pattern.

Some images of past work, much of which is in private collections can be seen to the right.

Since graduating from the RCA in 1991 his studies extended to an in-depth analysis of Traditional British Neolithic structures. This includes dwelling places, stone circles and burial tombs.

These appear to express geometric properties and symbolisms of the same order as Traditional Islamic Art.

Nicholas has exhibited work internationally.

Nicholas most recent work comprises a series of drawings which are studies of the principle of the doorway or passage to the transcendent. This is an idea common to all Traditional cultures throughout the world.
