As a detached observer of cities environments, Nicholas Aplin's paintings of architecture in nature recount the changing modern landscapes of our time.

Astutely observing the corners of urban Australian cities, Aplin primarily documents towers and fences. In his nature landscapes, Aplin's equally subtle and elegant compositions reveal location-specific trees, foliage and clouded skies. the artist takes a place within the tradition of landscape painting to uncover both the beauty and monumentalism of modern buildings in a changing environment.
