Fall in love with yourself

by Kika Karolina Niemczyk

One summer afternoon in the countryside, observing the creative freedom with which several children created their art works, the series of works "Fall in love with yourself" emerged. The author Kika Karolina Niemczyk believes that children are fully perfect beings who show their uniqueness at every step and pour their observations onto paper with an unwavering sure hand. Fascinated by children's creative work, the painter began to spend more time observing the surrounding reality - stones in the river, field flowers, book covers, friends' clothes, tableware in cafes - she tried to look at everything through the eyes of a child, so that she could express herself through abstract paintings with childlike confidence and joy. A therapist's pink manicure, a long massage - the inspiration for the works came from taking pleasure in observing colors, daring to try new things and also working with imagination. While painting the series "Fall in love with yourself," the artist was also accompanied with a poem by Rupi Kaur: nothing tastes better / than being on your own side.

Karolina Niemczyk, alias Kika, is a professionally active interior designer and painter. The interiors she designs fully reflect the needs and tastes of her clients, and in painting she fulfills only herself. She adheres to the principle that every day is worth a beautiful setting.
Her abstract paintings tell a story of the pleasure that can be derived from simply expressing oneself with color. For the artist, they also have a therapeutic value, helping her to pursue inner harmony. Kika is currently painting in two series: "May garden" and "Fall in love with yourself." She lives and is originally from Poland.
