NIKI ART
Eliane Megangmo Dontsa
NIKI ART is my alias, I'm into recycling plastic waste. I create decorative objects, clothing and fashion accessories using recycled plastic waste. I started making art at the age of 11, thanks to my departed mother.
Recipient of the 1st edition of the L'ART DE L'INCLUSION social venture competition.
ABOUT
In 2015, as the news talked about climate change, air pollution by plastic waste and the ban on the use of non-biodegradable plastics, my mind was racing and I was thinking about how I could make my modest contribution to humanity. That's how I came up with the idea of recycling plastic waste to innovate my art.
The beginnings weren't exactly easy, I was called crazy as I collected plastic waste from garbage bins, markets and even households, but I had confidence in my innovation, I had confidence in myself and that's why I was determined to achieve my goals.
Today, I'm proud of myself, with a formidable career path, and I'm encouraged in the eyes of the public thanks to my achievements, training women, street children and young people who want to learn. I was named Africa's Best Craftsman for 2021 by African JENFALL.
