“trigger points” (limited edition of 7)
“the rabbit hole was a free and opening experience, a creative laboratory platform where the collaboration between curators and artists gave me freedom to explore the creative which results in a cultural statement of individuality that transcends the ordinary and allows opportunities to evolve in an arena free of constraints. a connection is a spark. it requires motion and friction. it's how our senses mysterious emit emotion" - NI
seven 'clusterphotic' reflections of disposable moments that demand a second glimpse at the insignificant and the random.. a take on how human connectivity has been flirting with the instantaneous and the amusing. a floating and clean overwhelm.
on the road, nico investigated connectivity as transmitted through first impressions. online, he found strangers on the internet in the 7 cities and arranged photo shoots in the homes of willing participants. offline, he spontaneously shot the portraits of strangers that triggered and connected with him.
