​

There is nothing conventional about Nicole Van Houweninge /P. 

Fierce, Fragile, Flawless.

Her soft ferocity. Her brutal elegance.

An absolute Aesthete. Vigorous, mighty, tender, lustful. 

A creature full of contrasts. A hyper social loner.

A 'Bond' girl with poetic content.   

She has been bestowed a creative talent and a multifarious psyche. This alluring combination has produced a seductive composer of generating and captivating art for the world to experience and relish.

​

Throughout the years of her evolving career, Nicole’s inquiring mind and hunger for life have driven her to diversify her exquisite interests and talents. Over time she has enhanced her experience through training and work in many other facets of the artistic cosmos.

Her eclectic creative talent is clearly defined in her portfolio of diversified projects. Blended Arts. From visual art, to decors, to interiors, to concept development, to styling. 

The scope of her conceptual contributions encompass artistic endeavours which alternate within the worlds of exotic painting,

fashion, visual production, styling, poetry, music, theatre, film, décor and interior design.
 

You can feel the vitality and Mediterranean character through this exciting artist’s explosive work.

Bold imagination and intense expression, sometimes figurative, others abstract, time after time the traces she leaves are meant to carve emotions and stimulate new feelings and sentiments.

Constantly challenging, escaping the borders of the ordinary,

sometimes stomping her stubborn feet, some others, a tight-rope walker on a thin line, flowing insouciant amongst dreams and tales and

surreal realities.

  “Vital ingredients in my life and composition of work are

   Love, lust, passion, beauty, pain, poetry, wrath, aches, agony,  tenderness, sorrow, fantasy, humor, cynicism, sarcasm

   All of these contrasting elements help to shape

  the abstract form of being
