NICOLE VALENTI

Born in Italy’s South Tyrol in 1984, Nicole Valenti moved to Florence where she graduated in Decoration from the Academy of Fine Arts, with a major in multimedia arts.

Immediately after graduating, she won a scholarship and a tenure at the Academy of Florence as a Decoration Teacher. The item that best represents NIVA’s world is certainly the door handle, which is reinterpreted, drawing inspiration from natural and mysterious worlds, while offering original textures and tactile experiences. Everyday objects that are transformed into sculptures and acquire new meanings. The dreamlike world is one of the hallmarks that has always inspired and accompanied Nicole. Through her dreams, Nicole manages to give life to imaginary worlds and dimensions filled with precise elements and shapes that become real projects. Driven by a strong curiosity, she seeks to meet “the stranger” and hence new ideas and life inspirations. Every piece and project could be customized in according with the clients wishes.
