German artist Nike Schroeder belongs to the category of women for whom household is a joy, not a burden. So, the girl is happy to embroider at her leisure, but instead of cute napkins, pillowcases and bedspreads, she creates on cuts of fabric portraits from threads. Sometimes - whole series of portraits or scenes that resemble stills from films or accidentally taken photographs. This is why they are attractive. Carelessly made, carelessly processed, like unfinished works of a master-dropout - but this is all only at first glance. The more you look at portraits made of threads, the more attentively you look at each individual stitch, then at the whole picture, the clearer it becomes that we have before us a real masterpiece, a new word in the art of embroidery, a creative approach to needlework. Or maybe an innovative thread drawing style?
The plots of Nike Schroeder's embroidered paintings can be as intricate as they are simple. They are as banal as they are emotional, expressive, and even depraved to the point of shamelessness and shame. But all this is our life, all this is you and me, because the embroidered portraits of the artist depict exactly what she sees around, what is shown to us from TV screens and offered from the pages of magazines and newspapers.
Deliberate negligence is a carefully thought-out author's style of the artist. And every dangling thread, every missed stitch is not random, but is exactly where it should be, and in the right amount. However, sometimes Niiki Schroeder gives the chance to interfere in her work, but this process is still strictly controlled, so that the embroidered portraits of the artist can be called "ideally chaotic".
