ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The art I currently develop within my In|Square series intends to express my personal reflections on our inescapable immersion with technology. As the digital world expands its dominion, what was once familiar and tangible dissolves, the boundaries between truth and fiction blur, as the line between the real and the simulated becomes increasingly indistinguishable. The disintegration of the real world, occurring gradually and insidiously, forces us to confront profound questions about the nature of our existence and our relationship with the technological marvels we have created. It impels us to reconsider the significance of tangible experience, the primacy of genuine connections, and the ethical implications of embracing a world detached from the foundations of our humanity. Within this enigmatic landscape, we are tasked with the formidable challenge of navigating the interplay between the tangible and the digital, seeking harmony in an increasingly fragmented reality. In these artworks the juxtaposition of hyper-realism and "pixelation" serves as a powerful visual metaphor, underscoring the artificiality and transient nature of our experiences within the digital world. These artworks invite everyone to question the authenticity and integrity of the world they inhabit, urging them to confront the profound implications of living in a reality where truth itself seems fragmented and elusive.

I'm a pastel artist based in the Netherlands. Throughout my art career I developed my interest for the realist aesthetic and developed my own visual language with my in|square series. This collection of pastel artworks explores my vision of the fragmentation of our inner world into small, disconnected pieces, while we inevitably merge with technology. In parallel to my in|square artworks I'm constantly pushing the level of quality of my realist pastel technique and creating small realistic pastel artworks from wildlife to still-life. My love for pastels also led me to teach pastel workshops and classes. In my lessons I'm committed to make upcoming artists to discover their own passion for the pastel medium and provide them with the tools to express their own vision. The art collectors that enjoy my aesthetics, often order from me, commissions of pastel painting portraits or original pieces based on their ideas and it's great to also be able to make someone else's vision come into reality.
