Painting, Drawing, Other

In 2018 I moved to Groningen to study Fine Art at the Minerva Academy, I graduated in 2023 and now I work as an artist in Groningen.

My paintings reflect a desire for a harmonious world. Currently I'm inspired by architecture and the city. Contemplating the features of skyscrapers and flats. Rhythm of shapes, and a rhythm that plays with the viewer’s eyes. The repetition of windows and balconies produces a hypnotic effect so you can’t look away. By painting fragments of structures, the hectic part of the city is left behind and the focus is put on the tranquil architecture. Almost as if time is standing still. Through the facades in his paintings, he builds a new reality. My work explores beauty in different perspectives which are not widely accepted. I'm looking for beauty in non-obvious places.
