Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese journalist, writer and anti-corruption activist. In particular, she focussed on investigative journalism, reporting on government corruption and misconduct, nepotism, money laundering and links between the Maltese online gambling industry and organized crime. From 2016 she reported about connections between Panama and members of the government, including the Prime Minister and his wife, the chief of staff and a minister. Daphne was frequently intimidated for her work and opinions; from phone calls and notes pinned on her front door to her house being set on fire while the family was sleeping inside. On 16 October 2016, Daphne was assassinated by a car bomb. The investigation of her death has been slow, but under pressure of her family, the people of Malta, free press organizations and the European parliament that demand justice, people were arrested, among which a prominent Maltese businessman, and it led to the resignation of Malta’s Prime Minister. In the mean time, a consortium of 45 independent journalists published ‘The Daphne Project’, a collaboration to complete her investigative work. This portrait is one of a series of 13 called ‘Heroes of our time’ about woman who fight for human rights. The series are for sale, not the individual portraits. Price indicated with this portrait will be x 13, for all 13 portraits Half of my earnings will go the portrayed, to support their case.

Born in Amsterdam in 1969, I was trained as a decorative painter and worked doing faux marble finishing, gilding and other decorative techniques while exploring in my own paintings on canvas new ways to paint and express my vision of the world. Today I use traditional oil paint and epoxy resin, among other components, to create thick river stone-shaped canvasses, with a lot of depth, representing organic structures, which I see as the ‘Structures of Life’ and my portraits. Beside my commissioned work, I like to work on an underground layer of broken fresco. The breaking patterns give the portrait depth, like it tells a story of it's own.
