silber galerie is a hub designed to showcase the creative output of nick watson
i am self-taught in several media - ink drawing, oil painting, photography, small sculptures, graphics and craft work. i have also had many radical political cartoons published in the alternative / student press
my recent visual work has focussed on landscape, sometimes with neo-gothic elements, in a reductionist, neo-abstract fashion
i also write occasional poetry, cultural and political essays and criticism. writing haikus is my present area of literary interest
