“The Lightbox series is the heart of Aisthetikos. The narrative shifts with illumination. Switch it off, and you’re left with fragments and shadows. Switch it on, and the full story emerges — yet even then, each viewer perceives it differently. It’s a subjective experience, a form of storytelling through art. Think of early cave paintings: by firelight, the flicker of flames animated the images, transforming them into living narratives. In the same way, light breathes movement and meaning into my work.”
Colinci Featured as Wild Card on Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year 2025/6
We are delighted to share that contemporary landscape painter Colinci took part as a Wild Card artist during the June 2025 filming of Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year.
The competition took place aboard the historic HMS Wellington, the former Royal Navy sloop moored on the Thames at Victoria Embankment, London.
Colinci’s on-site painting has already been acquired by a collector. In keeping with programme guidelines, the artwork will remain under wraps until the episode is broadcast in January 2026.
Check back for updates and join us when the series airs early next year to see the painting unveiled on screen.

Aisthetikos: Beyond the Visible by Colinci
Bow’s Distillery, Laure-Minervois
25 September 2025, 19h00
On 25 September 2025, Colin Hollidge unveiled Aisthetikos: Beyond the Visible at Bow’s Distillery in Laure-Minervois. The event was highlighted in La Dépêche Carcassonne in the days prior, bringing local attention to this luminous exploration of memory, materiality, and illumination.
The exhibition presents wall-mounted light-box works that bridge the seen and unseen—each piece layered with hidden narratives revealed only through light. One of the inaugural works from the series has already sold, and two others to private collectors underlining the collector interest stirred by the project.
Visitors were invited to experience the works in situ, where the interplay of darkness and glow transforms the ambient space. The evening also served as a meeting point: future gallery hosts were introduced to the potential of Aisthetikos as a moving, site-responsive series.
The press coverage, community buzz, and collector interest mark Aisthetikos as a dynamic turning point in Hollidge’s practice—one that redefines how we perceive surface, depth, and illumination.
