Pronk still life Painting

Sierk was born in Vlaardingen (the Netherlands) in 1982 and he now lives and works in Amsterdam. In 2007, he earned his B.F.A. from Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam. Throughout the years, his paintings have been displayed in galleries, museums, and art fairs. He creates mostly paintings, but also drawings, engravings, etchings, and collages. The main focus of the themes is our generation’s self-obsessed behavior and the consequences it entails. In recent years, there has been a greater interest and emphasis for science, which includes investigating laws that are not well-understood. Although, beauty and death are always present in the paintings. It is possible to observe various styles, including realism, baroque, classicism, surrealism, pop art, and magic realism. The old masters have been a source of inspiration for composition and technique. However, the subjects are a reflection of the present time.
