Karmann Photos On Display At Good Samaritan
CHI Health Good Samaritan welcomes Nebraska photographer Nia Karmann to its Walkway Gallery. Her faith-inspired nature photos will be on display through July 2024.
“Capturing nature’s beauty allows me to express my freedom while escaping the box that Spina Bifida creates. Shooting from a wheelchair gives my work a unique perspective and I do whatever it takes to capture the right angle,” says Karmann.
Karmann is an award-winning photographer profiled in 2013 by Nebraska Public Media ‘Nebraska Stories.’

The gallery at Good Samaritan has provided a respite to those walking the hospital’s halls since 2008.
Artist Statement–written by Nia Karmann
Life holds a beauty that I enjoy and my passion in life is capturing that wondrous beauty that God has given us through photography. It’s exciting seeing the world through the eye of the camera.
I am an aspiring, award winning photographer who has participated in numerous photography contests and art shows perfecting my art for over 15 years. I was introduced to photography through 4-H and had excellent teachers.
My passion is sharing my view of the amazing beauty and wonder God has given me. I particularly love capturing wildlife at rest in their natural habitat.
Views from a wheelchair are always unique and many times what I see in a crowd is obstructed. But, when the crowd clears, I use my upbeat, creative attitude to capture the beautiful world around us. Unusual angles, shapes, and scenes visible from my wheelchair make my photography individual.
“A picture is worth a thousand words”. But a picture from “down under” is truly my offering to you. I share a new view of things short, tall and ever present in the everyday world. Come and enjoy that perspective with me.
