Nikol Andonova, known artistically as NIKYOTO is a contemporary artist whose creative journey was deeply transformed after a visit to Kyoto. Although art has always been part of her life, her professional path began in 2015 with surrealist digital portraits that merged reality with dreamlike worlds.

Her distinctive artistic signature is her pioneering resin work, especially her flowing paintings—dynamic compositions that seem to remain in constant motion, turning every frame into a new beginning. Beyond painting, she also explores jewelry and fashion, bringing her unconventional vision of matter as a symbol of endless movement and freedom.

NIKYOTO’s works are meant to be experienced rather than simply viewed. Through her unique technique of hand-modeling resin, she creates captivating 3D effects that play with light, depth, and transparency, immersing the viewer in a shifting dialogue with the artwork. Characterized by fluid forms and harmonious curves, her compositions evoke both tranquility and contemplation, while her use of pigments and metals adds an abstract yet profoundly resonant quality. Each piece tells a multilayered story that changes depending on angle and light, making every encounter with her art a unique experience.
