Known for her large-scale text sculptures and public commissions, Nicola’s practice encompasses sculpture, installation, drawing, written word and collaboration. Informed by her British Indian roots, her works explore contemporary issues by giving voice to unspoken stories and narratives that connect with history, people and places.

Drawing on both individual and collective experience, through her work Nicola explores the inherent possibilities of language using the versatility and power of the written word. Recent permanent sculptures include Murmuration at the National University of Ireland which was unveiled in 2023 and in the same year, she created her largest artwork to date, Metamorphosis, a light projection that illuminated the 100m tall façade of Liverpool Cathedral. Nicola is also a Sovereign Asian Art Prize (2021) finalist and the recipient of the New Voices of Ireland Award (2019).
