Bio | Statement
Nikola Mihajlović – Kori
After completing my Master's degree in Architecture in 2011, I became actively involved in street art and mural art, later expanding my artistic expression to studio painting. Over the years, I have gained global exposure by participating in mural festivals and projects in different countries such as Germany, France, Belgium, Switzerland, India, Vietnam, Greece, and the Balkan region. My works have been showcased in solo exhibitions in Switzerland and Serbia, as well as group shows in Germany, Belgium, Italy, and Serbia. Notably, I was the recipient of the first prize at the national art competition "Voyage Bleu".
As an artist, my approach to abstract painting and mural art is influenced by my fascination with the multidimensional nature of our world. I draw inspiration from various sources, ranging from existing nature and architecture to my deepest feelings. I consider the surface to be an integral part of a specific context where my intervention can manipulate its role, often challenging the observer's perception and emphasizing abstract thinking as a high-level tool for perceiving the world both inside and beyond ourselves. In my work, I explore the relationships between energies in multi-layered, emotional meta-spaces, with influences from architectural ethics and aesthetics.
