Who is Pia Pia?

My name is Nicole Cara.
I'm an artist, painter, photographer, interior lover and curator of fine things. Pia Pia is my natural continuation as a creative - my love of art and painting lead to a passionate discovery of photography nearly two decades ago. After eight years in professional portrait photography, I have found my focus and truly pinned on what has fuelled me - bringing beautiful fine art photography into the world. I'm passionate about being surrounded by people and pieces you love; that you can celebrate and cherish on the everyday. Art that can spark conversations, showcase your unique self, and become a focus of any room.

I have the absolute privilege of knowing so many creative talents, and Pia Pia is my love letter to each artist and maker. 

Inspired by my grandmother, also Pia, who left her home of Italy at 19 years old, for a new life in Canada. She was a incredible, self taught artist who specialised in watercolour, finding particular success in landscapes. She dabbled in everything and anything creative, with nothing she wouldn’t try. Childhood memories of her discovering paper making, flower pressing, oil pastels, water colour pencils have inspired my own journey as an artist. She was so respected in her art community, and her art brought so much to so many. I often wonder what her art could have been had she had a platform such as this, a way for so many more people to know her passion and her drive, her absolute love of art. This is for Pia, and creatives like her.
