“ You have this way of making silence so loud. That is something I revel in since I am profoundly deaf. Your works take my breath away. Your works give me sounds.”

Born from the desire to document my children’s life in a way that was true to them, a complex chaotic, gritty portrayal of childhood and family life that shaped my unique approach to photographing families over the 10 years both here in NZ and worldwide.

Niki takes pictures that are both perfectly clear and a total mystery. That are surreal and completely honest. That knock on Eugene Meatyard's & Eugene Richards door to say hello but have a mind of their own and are all about playing with the minor chords.

WILDING • GUTTURAL • FRENETIC

“ Niki Boon is Jack Kerouac with a camera. Her art is palpable, gritty, evocative, vulnerable. It’s scraped knees, trampled blossoms, suffering characters, humanity’s sweeping breadth. Using adventurous, film-like aesthetics with deep succumbing blacks, air-gasping contrasts.

It’s a love affair with bruises, the intimacy of bellicose moments, smitten with troublemaking tenderness. Low-fi kinetic poetry, a dapper, enthusiastic mix of panache and grit, disgust and awe.”

- Zoe Gemelli.

“Your imagery has always felt like a timelessly classic black and white film that has been hit on pause. They feel like a living breathing barrel of nostalgia to me. And I’m happy to get drunk amongst your work.”
