Nicky Myny is a Belgian painter based in South Africa. She creates large scale, colorful and gestural paintings that reflect her many experiences and affiliations. Myny discovered the power of art while healing from a medical illness. This experience led her to pursue a Master's degree in Arts at PXL University College of Hasselt, Belgium. During her studies, she studied psychology, trained as a professional pedagogue by and co-active coach at CTI in creative (self) leadership, and contributed as a member of the I.R.S.E. in Paris, France. She uses her creative voice to spark change by infusing art and the act of creation into leadership development and healthcare projects around the world. Her work is fueled by a joyful gratitude for life and an inspired dedication to helping others thrive. As part of her commitment to care for others and manifest the connections that come from making Art to every corner of our communities, she founded Artkom, a process art studio in Belgium. In addition to her creative practice, Nicky is also a founding partner of Unlocking Eve - an organisation that sets artistic leading direction to unlock integrated leadership for a balanced and healthier world. Most recently, Nicky moderated the launch event for the SDGTent (Sustainable Development Goals) at World Economic Forum 2022 in Davos as part of Unlocking Eve. Nicky's work has been exhibited widely in her home city of Belgium with additional shows in Davos, Switzerland. Her work is underpinned by a deep seated belief that we can create change through creativity and collaboration. To see more of Nicky's work, please visit: www.nickymyny.com www.instagram.com/nickymyny
