Welcome to my world beyond sight
A view from different perspective
My name is Nicol, and even though I can’t see with my eyes, I see the world a little more – with my heart.
I paint, write, create, dance.
And every day I learn to love life as it is, with everything it brings.
This website is not just about me. It’s about hope, strength, beauty that goes beyond the visible. It’s for everyone who wants to go deeper and feel more.
In the paintings, poems, fragments of life, you can meet the very perceptive gaze of a woman who went blind at the age of twenty-one, but still said yes to life. The sensitive revelation of the depths of own inner self through love for life and nature will touch you and leave an imprint of something that goes beyond you, but which you know so intimately. It is a touch of authenticity, truth, the god that we each carry inside our own hearts. My faithful guide on my journey through the inner landscape was the Amazon rainforest and the South American Andes which I repeatedly visited and fell in love with. Nature became my support in the dark night of the soul where deep within me I found the true source of life, the eternal light.
