Nike de Beer is one of the most promising painters of her generation.
Nike de Beers abstract paintings depict self-build constructions made of commodity goods found in her direct environment, machines, tools and combinations of these three. Her colour palette resembles the bright world of the Internet and social media. The paintings of Nike de Beer investigate in their size and detail the necessity of experiencing a painting in a physical space.

In 2014 Nike de Beer graduated from the Amsterdamse Hogeschool voor de Kunsten. In 2014, Nike de Beer was nominated for the Dutch Royal Award for Modern Painting and she won amongst others the Buning Brongers Awards, an award for young Dutch artists. After graduating, her work got featured in several group exhibitions. In 2015, de Beer had her solo debut at the New Art Section of Art Rotterdam.
