Niche - artist book

Afbeelding
Niche - 1/10 'Niche' is a series of 10 photo based digital paintings, brought together  in a small square photo paper booklet as a limited edition of 10 artist books, size 10x10 cm. The original image is given a different skin with each alteration. That way the niche seems to contain different emotions. The work was inspired by the change of light which influences our perception regarding the same scene.  It's a result of a site specific art project at the watermill of the historical site of 'Huis Millen' in Sittard, 2016. Buy one here by sending me an email, ask for 'Niche artist book'.

Photography

Ever since I got my first camera at the age of five, I take photographs while moving through space and time. As a teenager I learned to print my own photo's and experimented a lot in the dark room. I picked up photography again right after  successfully  finishing art school, in the directions of painting, drawing and graphic art. Photography is the most direct way to translate aspects of reality into still images. Moving through space and time I’m connected to the landscape. I use photography to fathom the scenery through a sequence of moments, concentrating on every aspect of my surrounding, sometimes even mapping it bit by bit. Finding a spot of interest, I can spend hours on the same spot, taking photographs of nearly every inch, approaching, distancing, giving meaning to small and simple things and at the same time capture the greatness of the incorporating surrounding, resulting in strong and powerful images, sometimes with a certain cinematographic tension.

Review: Saal-Digital print

Via een 'profi-direct-upload' kunnen professionele media designers, graphic designers, illustrators en fotografen foto's en afbeeldingen met behulp van eigen programma's bewerken en naar eigen zeggen "eenvoudig" in de webshop uploaden. Als kunstenaar veelal werkend met fotografie werd ik gekozen door 'Saal Digital' om een van hun print producten te testen. De keuze Als beeldend kunstenaar verwerk ik mijn fotografie vaak als onderdeel van een sculptuur of  als 'elementen'  in een installatie. Maar veel van mijn foto- en digitaal werk is ook beschikbaar om aan de muur te hangen en komt in allerlei formaten. Mijn werk wordt internationaal getoond in galeries, expositieruimtes en musea. Om een indruk te krijgen verwijs ik naar mijn website ...
