My works are complex photo collages based on my own photography. I have been collecting photographs for over a decade. It is a long process of combining carefully selected photography fragments and illustrated parts, which are then transferred to computer and digitally painted.
It covers different aspects of life, changes, challenges, as well as human nature, but expressed as a long and unpredictable journey through some distant worlds. It is a reflection of current experiences, relationships...of conscious and intentional, but also of dreams and unconscious reactions to our surroundings and present state of mind.
It is mostly conceptual and symbolic and reflects inner observations, presented through fantasy stories. However, on the other side, it also shows a path to some distant part of ourselves, the one of a child, which sometimes is unfortunately very much forgotten.
Sometimes it is dark, gloomy, and crumbling, while on the other side it is energetic and hopeful, even humorous.
"I am inspired by my surroundings and I see potential in various everyday things and relations, people, nature, architecture, even food. I see them sometimes as fragments of my work. Most of times they stay just that, fragments, and sometimes they become unified into a whole and therefore start to exist as a part of my sceneries.
By using real life photographs and textures I give my work a feel of realism, although the themes are far from being realistic…"

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.”
