BIOGRAPHY &
CREATIVE PROCESS
About Nicolle
Nicolle Cure is a Colombian-American artist whose work explores the intersection of sound, emotion, and visual form.
Based in Miami, Florida, she creates abstract paintings that are both dynamic and meditative, drawing inspiration from personal experiences, including her journey with hearing loss.
In 2017, she experienced sudden unilateral hearing loss and was later diagnosed with Ménière’s disease—a vestibular condition affecting both hearing and balance. This life-changing event reshaped her creative approach, leading her to translate sensations of sound and silence into color, movement, and fluid compositions.
Widely collected by patrons around the world, her abstract works offer a profound sense of tranquility while reflecting the duality of emotion and perception.
Creative Process
Through mixed-media techniques, Nicolle explores contrasts in her work, alternating between vibrant, energetic palettes and soft, neutral tones. She often describes her pieces as abstract sonic landscapes, evoking whispers, lullabies, and quiet reflection.
While her neutral-toned paintings provide a meditative escape, her expressive brushstrokes and bold colors evoke joy and nostalgia, showcasing the versatility of her practice.
