About the Film

We invite you to experience an introduction to Nick Fraser’s Artistic Journey, an 11-minute short film capturing the life, artistry, and enduring legacy of Nick Fraser. This heartfelt short film was lovingly created to bring Nick’s incredible story to life. East End factory worker turned prolific outsider artist, who painted through chronic pain to create works that transcend time and resonate deeply with universal themes. Guests were free to settle in for a moment of reflection, sit, or stand as they experienced Fraser’s world through the eyes of those closest to him. This visual narrative will give insight into his artistic process, inspirations, and the profound connections he shared that shaped his journey.

TESTIMONIALS:  

Andrianne

"I'm still contemplating the mesmerising artworks of Nick Fraser, whose posthumous exhibition at the Crypt Gallery in London this week left me stunned.... spiritual, tribal, ethereal, a faintly ominous other-worldly experience. Perhaps the atmospheric live music and the Crypt setting itself enhanced the sense of vacuous blackness in the empty eyes and gaping mouths - the dramatic legacy of an unrecognised yet extraordinary talent who died in 2023, unknown. His story is now beautifully and lovingly revealed by lifelong friend and muse, Mark O'Shaughnessy and his son, Marcus, who curated this first public exhibition of Nick Fraser artist, Chapter 1, in the artist's home city, London. World class! Congratulations!
