Nike Schroeder

In our May/June Issue, 52: Botanical, we were lucky enough to commission artist Nike Schroeder to illustrate our piece on Role Models. Berlin-based, Nike uses embroidery to create intricate, spontaneous designs based on photography. This is clear in her project The Shortstop Series, which recreates photobooth pictures. Her high-energy pieces have attracted the attention of companies such as Urban Outfitters in Hamburg and Berlin.
