Temporary Exhibition 5th - 10th May 2023, Museum of Chinese Australian History.

Free with the price of museum admission.

Nikki is a young artist of Chinese descent currently living and working in Australia. Nikki considers and blends the cultural differences between the East and the West to highlight and form the juxtaposition between the two.

As a Chinese artist who immigrated to the West, Nikki has immersed herself in the Australian culture. Her work uses the form of traditional Chinese dramas and stage plays of various countries to combine these dichotomous philosophies and techniques, allowing her to explore her own understanding through imagination and creativity.

Nikki’s practice integrates the latest contemporary international art trends to create a unique aesthetic style. She works across multiple mediums, engaging with oils, acrylic, and composite materials, usually painting on an easel.

Her work has been invited to participate in several overseas art exhibitions and has won many awards. 

• Winner - 2012 Gold Award of Chinese art industry
• Best in Show - The Somers Arts Fair 2021 
• People's Choice Award - The KernART Prize Exhibition 2021 

Nikki's work has become sought after by collectors here in Australia and abroad. Nikki has also worked as an independent curator and from 2010 to 2014 worked at Shanghai Art Museum.
