Nicolette Bénard
Visual Artist
Nicolette Bénard, a Dutch designer, initially pursued her studies at Vakschool Schoonhoven. She then spent several years as a gold and silversmith before transitioning into the realm of visual art. With a playful touch and a generous dose of humor, Nicolette transforms her iconic creations into handmade sculptures that are both intriguing and humorous.
Her art serves as a tribute to the allure of imperfection, inviting interpretation and kindling the imagination. Through her unique humor-infused approach, she skillfully reimagines childhood artifacts as distinctive plexiglass sculptures, prompting contemplation about the concept of perfection and its elusive nature.
Nicolette’s art has received multiple awards, and she showcases her work at art exhibitions, galleries, and events around the world.
Nicolette Bénard’s art revolves around the fine line between perfection and imperfection. In her project ‘B,’ vintage and modern converge as she delves into the concept of dolls as beauty icons.
Introducing “Signed for Life,” Nicolette’s newest artistic series born from her collaboration with Tattoo Artist Aida Saz. This unique fusion of elegance and rebellion serves as a powerful statement on life itself.
Nicolette Bénard adds, “Tattoos serve as a means to connect not only with those around you but also with your own values and identity. Each artwork in this captivating collection bears the unique imprint of two worlds colliding. They embody elegance in their determination and rebellion in their individuality.
