Nicky Champa is feeling lost, but maybe that’s a good thing. The social media icon recently shared a series of artistic shots that showcase both his sculptural physique and artistic talent. Champa took to Instagram to surprise his followers with photos that show a different, moodier side.

Who is the photographer for this incredible series?

Champa: Usually Pierre is the one that takes all of my solo photos and visa versa although for these it was actually a photographer we worked with a few years back, Luke Fontana.

What inspired these incredible shots?

Champa: I tend to do things creatively that sometimes don’t make sense until a little bit later on in my life. For these, they were shot as I was still figuring myself out and how I wanted to express myself.

Can we expect to see more artistry like this from you?

Champa: Yes without a doubt. I have so many unshared photos and also have plans to make so many more. Making art in either photographs or videos has always been a creative release for me and will continue to be how I show myself artistically. This conflicting idea that just because I am known for being a certain way on TikTok doesn’t mean I have to restrict the other parts of me, and that stood In the way for quite some time. But now with finding more security in myself, I realized how unnecessary that was and how I want to celebrate who I am now and who I want to be.
