Exploring the ordinary qualities of everyday items for example the white shirt, the sewing needle and obsolete technology, Nicola Naismith uses a combination of digital and analogue processes. Simple objects are subject to complex questions concerning production, labour, value and the human machine. Naismith represents these ideas through works that unravel operations between hand, eye, brain, body and machine whilst referencing industrial and globalisation contexts.

Naismith views process as practice and works to commission, on residency and self initiated projects.
She uses historical and contextual research and explores digital modes of production. Outputs include installation, photography, video and drawing in addition to research papers and artist talks.
