b'BEING IN THE FISHER HAS BEEN LOVELY! I LOVE THE SPACE, ACCESSIBILITY AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR GROWTH AND COLLABORATION WITH THE PLATFORM.S H E I L A N I C O L I NGOLDTOP STUDIO sheilanicolin.com / @sheilanicolin sheilanicolin@gmail.com / 313-910-9218Sheila is a Detroit-based painter and pattern designer. Within her practice, she incorporates her commercial background as an illustrative designer through bold pattern, color and trend iconography. Her dreamlike paintings and portraits question the nature of the real versus unreal; dream versus reality; the overwhelmed individual versus fast-paced culture. This experience has been incredibly rewarding both professionally and personally, as the Fisher Building is not only aesthetically inspiring, but offers a creative network in which all members can boost one another toward success through friendship and support. These creative spaces have offered my studio mates and me the opportunity to find a permanent home within the Detroit art and design community, while we grow as creatives together.'
