About The Artwork
Painting: Mixed Media on Canvas. Solid Wood Stretcher Frame 20mm (the borders are also painted) Ready to hang thanks to the stretcher frame and a wire Original paining Comes with a certificate This painting is part of the serie Corona-Stories: Tranquil Cities, Longing to go Outside During the corona lockdown (spring 2020) I visualized cities where no one is on the streets. The people are inside their house. Safe and secure from the big bad outside world. In this first painting I incorporated texts from the book “Eyes of Tigers” by Tonke Dragt. In this story there is no longer any nature on earth. The entire world consists of urban areas, where people prefer to stay indoors. In the painting the artist incorporated the thoughts and feelings of the main character. He stands on the balcony and dreams of what the world would be like if there was room for spontaneity and if there was freedom to express creativity. Unfortunately he lives in a world where there is no room for this anymore. Because of the leaf metal texts that are incorporated in the painting, the atmosphere and appearance of the artwork are, as with a real city, strongly influenced by the incidence of (sun) light.

Have you ever considered how special it is that we can read? Text is nothing but a series of characters in a row, to which we have assigned meanings. We can experience a whole range of feelings and emotions just by looking at those signs. From an early age I have been fascinated by letters. When I look at letters, I see beautifully designed figures. What I find so fascinating is that we don’t or hardly don’t see those figures anymore, once we can read. You are immediately transported to the world behind the letters. Based on this fascination, I want to show how text and image intertwine in my head. How they enter into a symbiosis with each other. I do this by making paintings in which I interweaves image and text. I use gold leaf and silver leaf that reflect the light in a different way each time you walk by. This brings the painting to life and makes it look different every time you look at it.
