Transformative Art in the Balance of Perfection and Imperfection

Nicolette Bénard, a celebrated Dutch designer and visual artist, creates distinctive sculptures that explore the delicate balance between perfection and imperfection. A graduate of Vakschool Schoonhoven, Nicolette began her career as a gold and silversmith before evolving into a visual artist renowned for her thought-provoking works. Inspired by her mother’s elegance and love for pearls, Nicolette blends vintage charm with contemporary design in her project ‘B,’ where dolls become symbols of beauty and societal expectations.

Her art pieces, often crafted from plexiglass, incorporate elements of humor and childhood nostalgia, challenging the viewer’s perception of beauty and the illusion of perfection. Nicolette’s sculptures have been showcased internationally, earning her multiple awards and recognition. Her work is a celebration of the beauty found in imperfection, inviting viewers to embrace the unique and the unexpected.

Nicolette’s creations can be experienced in galleries, art exhibitions, and events around the globe.
