Art in Residence Book

Art in Residence explores how people actually live with the things they love—not pristine gallery spaces, but homes where creativity unfolds naturally. Photographer Nicole England documents the quiet intimacy of art collections in their natural habitat.

These spaces reveal something essential about their inhabitants—not through curation for its own sake, but through the accumulated presence of objects that resonate with the owners. From an artist's industrial work/live studio to a Brutalist apartment, from a modern coastal retreat to an architect's restrained dwelling, each home offers a different vocabulary for living with art.

This isn't a document of who owns what. It's an investigation into how art shapes daily life—the pieces that anchor a room, the unexpected juxtapositions that emerge organically, the way certain objects claim their territory over time. What unites these residents is an unwillingness to treat art as decoration.
