About Nicolas Petit

The depths of the mind and the understanding of the unknown manifest themselves in the work of photographer and multidisciplinary artist Nikkõ. From his early days of finding creative freedom by learning about the various artistic currents of the emerging urban culture of the 1980s in the streets of his native Paris, Nikkõ's signature style stems from his adventurous approach to life, whether it be traveling across India on a motorcycle or exploring the Amazon rainforest.
With more than two decades of photographic practice, Nikkõ's experimental techniques and exploratory vision have resulted in a history of international exhibitions ranging from Miami to New York and from Paris to Seoul. His work has been shown in such prestigious galleries as Nina Torres Fine Art Gallery, Montserrat Gallery, as well as in festivals such as the Bièvre International Photography Festival.
After the birth of his daughter, Nikkõ's determination to pursue his work with even greater tenacity resulted in his latest series, The Life of Shapes, a project that combines his humanistic philosophy with his expressive and abstract style.
Today, Nikkõ lives and works in Stuttgart, Germany.
