Nikia Parker
Communication Designer
& Fine Artist
About
My name is Nikia and I am a queer Thai-American designer. My lived experience existing to overcome binaries inspires my design work to be precise, conceptual, and empathetic. Embedding intention in everything I do is close to my heart, especially when considering the needs of diverse groups. As a result of this, I do not intend to silo myself into any specific medium. I will passionately and informatively execute every solution. Even so, there are methods that appeal to my inner curiosity and enjoyment. When a solution calls for print and handmade deliverables I am emboldened by experimental opportunities. This experimentation derives from my ongoing love for fine arts and a childhood filled with craft activities. I have worked in a variety of mediums in my personal time as an exercise of creativity and problem-solving. Both of these translate into fundamental skills in the creation of effective design solutions.
The relationship between my fine arts and design work is one of polarity. My paintings are fluid and expressive. Meanwhile, I lean towards a Modernist aesthetic with design. In this field I enjoy working on typography, branding, print, and general graphic design. As a designer I enjoy engaging with the rules to empower subjective, personalized content. In allowing my subjective experience to inform my process, I look forward to a career driven by empathically producing others’ narratives.
