You see people underway meeting, greeting , waving , walking towards each other. I used acrylic to paint the 4 plexiglass plates. It can stand or hang, and it is ready to hang (2 holes for screw on the last plate). Strobos Silvia main theme is encounters, she shows the different ways in which people are connected with each other. Her paintings are full and structured at the same time, as if she tries to organize human interaction. Her work pictures crowds but highlights the personal contact between a few. The use of plexiglass in her work layers the social structures, it gives it more depth and thus emphasizes the personal encounters in the front. Her clear message is that in a world of algorithms, hashtags and followers, we shouldn`t forget how important real human interaction is. Her work is represented by 4 galleries in Zürich, Munich, Konstanz and Amsterdam and shown on big Art Fairs like the renowned Art Karlsruhe, the Affordable Art Fairs (Amsterdam, Hamburg, Brussels), Art Nocturne Knocke, Art International Zürich, ARTMUC, INC Hamburg and many more.

Silvia Strobos is a dutch artist who has been living and working in Switzerland since 1998. The main theme of her work is encounters. The importance of actual human interaction is key in our happiness and Silvia`s work highlight the joy of reaching out to each other, working together, dancing together and spending time together as friends and family. Her paintings are full and structured at the same time, as if she tries to organize human interaction. Her work pictures crowds but highlights the personal contact between a few. She often uses plexiglass in her work which layers the social structures, gives it more depth and thus emphasizes the personal encounters in the front. Her clear message is that in a world of algorithm, hashtags and followers, we shouldn't forget the importance of real physical human interaction. Since 2012, her work has been exhibited in several galleries in group exhibitions as well as in solo exhibitions, and shown at many international art fairs including Affordable Art Fair Hamburg, AAF Brussels, AAF Stockholm and AAF Amsterdam. In 2020 she had her premiere at the well known Art Karlsruhe. Other art fairs where her work was shown are the Art International Zürich, ArtMuc in Munich, Art Nocturne Knocke and the INC Hamburg.
