ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Through my art, I aim to convey a sense of peace, strangeness, and even humor by depicting surreal animal habitats that exist somewhere between reality and imagination. I want to share my dreamlike visions and offer an escape from the often harsh realities of the world. Animals play a central role and exist without hierarchy, in contrast to their treatment in the real world. They are used symbolically and are the main characters in a harmonious world, serving as a link between the past, present, and fragile natural environment. Through the lens of allegory, animals represent not only themselves but also facets of human experiences, acting as metaphors for unity and resilience. Giclée on Hahnemühle mold-made, museum quality, acid-free paper, printed with a white border. Each print is signed, numbered, and accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity and serial number, using secure holographic identification. Prints are sent unframed in a sturdy tube. All quoted dimensions represent the actual printed image size, not the paper size. Nikolina's distinctive artistic style has captured the attention of prestigious clients such as Ferragamo and Marriot, with whom she has collaborated closely. Her signature Blue Pear series has gained worldwide recognition, earning numerous international art awards. Her impressive portfolio has been widely acclaimed and exhibited in galleries and museums across Europe, the United States, and Asia.

Inspired by nature, societal observation, and the world of fantasy, Croatian artist Nikolina Petolas opens the door to secret places where memories, desires, and the subconscious converge, existing somewhere between real life and imagination. Through allegory as a means of expression, she discovers a parallel world woven into dreams and disrupts our perception of reality. In her symbolic visual stories, Nikolina creates a deep narrative with profound compositions in her unique style by blending contemporary digital techniques with photography or through traditional painting. Nikolina's artistic vision has attracted the attention of high-profile clients such as Ferragamo and Marriott, with whom she has worked closely. Her signature Blue Pear series, developed over the past 12 years, has earned global recognition and numerous international art awards. Her work has been acknowledged by prestigious institutions, including the IPA Photography Awards, LICC, Beautiful Bizarre, FAPA, and notably, the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, to name just a few. Her impressive portfolio has been widely acclaimed and exhibited in galleries and museums across Europe, the United States, and Asia.
