Barbara Nicholls: Sedimentary Flow is the first substantial
publication on the British artist Barbara Nicholls, who has been
producing work for over 30 years. The title focusing on Nicholls
monumental watercolour works.These paintings emerged by
manipulating the behaviour of pigment in ever-increasing quantities
of water. As such their production remains consistent with
Nicholls' approach to art production over the years, when she has
stitched, drawn, covered, cut, built and otherwise extracted her
media from sites of chaos. The book includes a specially
commissioned essay by Martin Holman, whose writing on contemporary
and modern visual art has appeared in leading art press outlets
since 1979. He is a regular contributor to international media
outlets such as Cura, Freize, Art Review and Art Monthly. His
essays analyse Nicholls' watercolour works as well as the history
of her practice prior to their creation. Holman's previously work
about Nicholls appeared in the catalogue for Et in Arcadia
Ego-Weltchaos & Idylle, Museum Kurhaus Kleve, Germany 2015.
Barbara Nicholls lives and works in London."

"The Old Capital is one of the three novels cited specifically by
the Nobel Committee when they awarded Kawabata the Nobel Prize for
Literature in 1968. With the ethereal tone and aesthetic styling
characteristic of Kawabata's prose, "The Old Capital tells the
story of Chieko, the adopted daughter of a Kyoto kimono designer,
Takichiro, and his wife, Shige.
Set in the traditional city of Kyoto, Japan, this deeply poetic
story revolves around Chieko who becomes bewildered and troubled as
she discovers the true facets of her past. With the harmony and
time-honored customs of a Japanese backdrop, the story becomes
poignant as Chieko's longing and confusion develops.
