Nikke Naeme Dutch Artist

Based in Amsterdam, Nikke Naeme is a multidisciplinary artist with a lifelong passion for music and graphic art, starting to draw as soon as he could hold a pencil. Although he initially considered formal art education, he pursued studies in social sciences and mental health care, which deeply influence his creative approach. After years of working with children with behavioral disorders, he became a full-time artist in 2021. His work delves into themes of life, death, popular culture, and human behavior, with a focus on the complexities of the human psyche. Known for his unique stamping technique, his paintings create mirrored perspectives, encouraging viewers to explore questions of self-identity and perception—'Who am I really? Is this how others see me, or how I see myself?'
