Niko Bikialo creates the soundtrack for the "Masks" exhibition

Nicolas Bikialo (Niko Bikialo) is a French film director and composer born on 21 May 1973 in Thiais. His father is Lithuanian and his mother French.

His father is a musician by profession. He followed in his footsteps. He entered the conservatory at the age of 7. He started with the piano and then took up the drums at the age of 17. He then joined alternative rock bands.

He met Olivier Mégaton in 1995. From then on he worked on a series of short films and commercials, and then Niko Bikialo worked on his film EXIT in 98 (produced by Luc Besson). From there he went on to compose music for films (such as "Ceci est mon corps"), TV, documentaries, series, etc.

In composing the music for the MASQUES exhibition, Niko wanted to pay tribute to GRILLON as an artist and a woman. He drew inspiration from all his passions, from the very essence of his being (cinema, Asia, opera, theatre, his plays, etc.). His music is a sensory experience that he has tried to condense into several acts, like a play. The spectator is taken on a journey through the box of masks.
