NIKI is not just a biopic — it is a visceral, visually rich meditation on resilience, female agency, and the unstoppable drive to create ART. - Niki de Saint Phalle - French Artist

Iconic artist Niki de Saint Phalle shattered rigid expectations of womanhood, forging a fearless new language of feminism through bold, explosive art. Against all odds, she transformed personal pain into monumental works like HON, the 25M long supine pregnant woman where the public enter the sculpture via the vagina, espousing female strength and the unapologetic power of womanhood, emerging as a trailblazing force: sculptor, painter, filmmaker, and fearless feminist.

The release of NIkiI the movie in Australia, coincides with the landmark Niki De Saint Phalle exhibition at the Grand Palais, Paris from June 26, 2025.
