Vick Naresh (b. Bombay, India) is a contemporary artist working and living in Hamilton, CA.
Through a process of multi-layered abstraction, Naresh carefully combines biomorphic complexities, geometric structures, and the manifestation of imagined environments using vibrant colour. Exploring nostalgia, identity and memory, his work is derived from a wide array of lived inspirations and art historical references but also dwell within the realms of spiritual and scientific acknowledgements. His abstractions grapple with the intangible as they invite the viewer to unravel mysteries from time rediscovered. -- His recent solo shows include “Fragility in Beauty” with CAMP Gallery, Miami (2024), "You Are Many Moves" at the Dundas Valley School of Art (2023) and "Sequence of Events" at The Assembly Gallery (2023). His work was recently exhibited at ART Toronto 2024 with Dianna Witte Gallery, Toronto, Canada. Previously, his work has been included in group shows at Monica Reyes Gallery, Vancouver, Canada (2024); 19 Karen Gallery, Brisbane, Australia (2022); The Hamilton Artist's Inc. (2024) and Art Gallery of Hamilton (2024). In 2022, he was awarded a six-month art residency at the Hamilton Arts Council within the Cotton Factory in Hamilton, Canada. More recently his work was also featured at The 2024 Art With Heart Live Auction in support of Casey House Toronto.
