Nico Krijno was born in 1981 in Cape Town, South- Africa. His photographs are at once hyperreal and otherworldly, pointing at the banality of existence through the semiotics of everyday objects, with humour, sexual innuendo and surreality present in equal measure. "I am deeply fascinated by the tension I sense beneath the surface of things, particularly that which underlies the everyday and the mundane."

Nico Krijno currently lives and work in Johannesburg, South-Africa. His work has been shown in Edinburgh, Milan, Los Angeles, San-Francisco, Glasgow & London. He was nominated for the Paul Huf Award 2013
