Nikolina Petolas
Nikolina feels a profound fascination with human behavior: with her works she searches to underline the psychological and social aspects of our identity and effects that endless soul searching has on our lives.
In her metaphorical presentations, from multiple personalities, dreamlike landscapes to strange and dark creatures and environments, she uses the observation of inner conflicts and questions that arise from them, as a dreamy and vivid example to show complex human emotions and drives as well as her subjective personal experience of the world.
She expresses her eerie visions through screenshots of an imagined story, by guiding the viewer on a journey through imaginative visual interpretations of her fictional worlds.
Her motives are sometimes dark and gloomy and often present dreamlike ambients and strange creatures. She personifies them with her state of consciousness, inner conflicts and excessive dreamy nature.
"Nikolina has found a way to show daydreaming in a new and refreshing way.
Her images are different and full of intrigue.
Items from everyday life become storytellers who guide us to the fairy tale land of dreams and imagination.
Nevertheless there are also questions raised about existence and reality which guide us to the new and sometimes darker spheres. Ultimately, they give us fresh view to the world around us.”
