Nikè Marchand

Nikè Marchand is an artist based in Tilburg, The Netherlands.

In her artistic practice, Nikè delves into the exploration of her own emotions and experiences through the representation of creatures. Some creatures embodying pain or discomfort, while others express strength and connection. Unraveling these symbolic stories invites viewers to engage in a conversation with the layered meaning.

Through various series, Nikè reveals specific themes, allowing the audience to travel along. This exploration is not only visible in the theme, but is also reflected in the use of color, composition and shadow techniques. As a bicultural woman, her identity is closely tied to her skin color, which affects her sense of safety and belonging. This duality is expressed in Nikè's art, where color becomes a powerful tool to convey emotions.
