Nikki Swift has been a practicing filmmaker and artist for most of her life. Recording day-to-day life since she was a teenager, she imagines herself a tinkerer of sorts exploring various image-making devices to fit her creative whims. Nikki creates video installations that combine social commentaries with archival materials, found footage, and a connection to the historical avant-garde film and video movements.

Nikki’s background includes a Bachelor of Art in both Film Studies and Art History from The Ohio State University and a Masters in Library and

Information Science with a focus in digital collections preservation and access from Kent State University. Since 2003, she has been working as an artist, curator, and media consult for businesses, non-profits, and residents of the Central Ohio area while producing her own work which have shown at festivals and competitions across the US and abroad. In 2014 she was awarded a Greater Columbus Arts Council Media Arts Fellowship.
