NIKI'S LATEST WORK

NIKI's work is divided into two main portfolios...

NIKI MCQUEEN ART

Dystopian worlds and fever dreams. A place for uncomfortable and discordant feelings, dark humour and fragile things. For loved and gone and lost and found.

LIFE BEYOND REASON ART

Where magic is real and the imagination is unfettered and wild. Where fish fly and elephants play soccer. A world where children (and adults) are free to play without fear, minds unleashed

NIKI MCQUEEN ART

“These collections summon the places where stories are born, where unfelt emotions dwell and unthought thoughts await. These are places beyond the mundane: inner and outer consciousness. They are explored through the production of impossible encounters and beautiful beings, charged with symbolism and borne of grief, joy, love, damage, disease and lessons. They exist to evoke reflection and curiosity, discomfort and relief.”

LIFE BEYOND REASON ART

Life Beyond Reason seeks to remind us about the healing and restorative power of the magic that lives inside the minds of children. With untarnished eyes they dream dreams that are for us, long gone.

These are portraits created using mixed media, ink and watercolours. Niki seeks always to capture the essence of her subjects and prefers to connect with, and photograph them herself, before creating the portrait.

TESTIMONIALS

Every morning I come into my lounge, sit down in the corner of my couch, nurse my cup of coffee and look up at MY Life Beyond Reason creation, that sits up on my wall.

What started out as an uncontrollable urge to share with the artist a vision that popped into my head, no that isn’t right, a feeling that blossomed in my heart turned into the gorgeous artwork that I now get to call my own.

~Hila Jonker

I am super privileged to be the very first person to purchase one of Niki’s artworks. I have bought two pieces – Evolution and the Awakening – both speak to my passion for coaching and inspired my business logo and focus.

Niki also created a unique piece especially for my 10-year-old daughter that depicts her 100%.

Thank you Niki for your contribution to art.

~Chantelle Wilson

I absolutely LOVE the three pieces that I purchased. I see them as an investment, because Niki’s work is truly remarkable. They were shipped up to Johannesburg with no issues.

~Claire Hanley

The detail in the [image] is also exceptionally rendered. This is a really beautiful piece, reflecting some real talent.
