Niki Steel

My work is inspired by the material its self and the movement and dynamism seen in futurist art. Colours come from the primary and secondary colour wheel and are used under certian theorys in order to create feeling and emotion. My work is inspired by glass its self, playing with the beautiful optical qualities and often to create a sense of movement. I always aspire to create pieces that draw the viewer in to see what is happening inside.
