The inspiration behind all the images created was “oneness with nature”. Yoga provides a oneness with the mind, body, and surroundings.
Because I am inspired by the beauty and complexity of nature, performing yoga poses in a forest seemed natural to my style and to my heart. While there is little purpose to where each yoga pose takes place, it is performed with pure intentions and with knowledge and recognition of the Earth. Connecting with trees, ponds and streams represents a life flow both inside the body and in the environment.

Nika Witkowski Photography
Nicole Witkowski (under artist pseudonym Nika) is a 21-year-old journalism graduate who learned early in her academic career that she’s a better storyteller through images than she is through words. However, she credits the journalistic direction for her introduction into the artistic world. Without attempting to create a summer blog, she would not have stumbled upon Flickr, and the plethora of amazing photographers that have become her inspiration and friends.
Through fine art conceptual photography, Nika expresses emotions, challenges the status quo and demands her audience think about the world from a different viewpoint. Her personal inspiration comes from a deep appreciation of Mother Nature and the emotions experienced through music. Together they allow her fantastical worlds to take on multi-dimensions. She's agreed to do a photo series for Spiritfeet, promoting and sharing health.
