About The Artwork

This modern art painting consists of two transparent layers. Using acrylic paint and pigments on a double transparent surface attached on a hardwood frame. The image shows a contemporary tale of white women dancing behind the trees. Contemporary Dutch visual artist Hester van Dapperen adds depth to her paintings both physically and figuratively. Van Dapperen uses the refined and raw material layers of which the artwork consists, instead of hiding the materials below the surface of the (painting) image. Because of the layered, 3d structure her work is never finished, the light that strikes the surfaces of the painting creates dropshadows in the back, it changes depending on the angle of the light. The artist's developed the concept of transparent paintings herself. For more information http://www.dapperen.nl

Hester van Dapperen explores new ways. She paints persons in motion on a background of modern life. The paintings are often on a transparent carrier, most with textile insertions. She finds her inspiration in the urban environment of the metropolitan area. 
The paintings often have a subliminal contemporary social message. 
Several aspects can reveal themselves to the spectator. It began with the completion of the fashion Academy in Amsterdam and designing for well-known clothing brands like Oilily and Mexx. However her passion for painting and making objects made sure that Hester is now an established visual artist. She was selected for the master class of the well-known German artist Jorg Immendorff. Hester works in concepts, with a clear idea, the human in motion. She also wants to make the importance of the used material visible, such as with the transparent paintings in layers. Her paintings are regularly exhibited and also collected abroad; Her work regularly gets a central place at this artsite Saatchiart.com It is possible to visit her studio in Amsterdam, on appointment. THE ARTIST ABOUT HER WORK "In my paintings I am fascinated by the human in motion. I often work for years with a concept; in wich new nuances arise. The role of the material used is also important: -My favourite carrier is transparent. It creates an effect of fragility, depth and shadows. -I like to use textile additions like patchwork, holes, cuts and sutures, embroidery, or mother of Pearl buttons. -The use of pigments. By making paint with pigments, the tone can be surprisingly deeper, more shiny or matt. As I was a fashion designer before being a contemporay artist, many of my paintings have traces of fashion and textile additions ".
