We made our own private work inspired by each other as different cells who meet, touch and then grow in different directions.

Over Saskia

Mijn werk bestaat uit collages, schilderijen en tekeningen van een denkbeeldige organische wereld.
Met mijn neus op de grond fotografeer ik kleine plantjes, schimmels en beestjes.
Regelmatig kijk ik door een microscoop naar de kleinste natuur. Tevens verzamel ik beeldmateriaal uit bestaande lectuur en oude encyclopedieën.
Hierbij onderzoek ik de relatie tussen vorm en textuur in verschillende levensvormen. Door beeldmateriaal opnieuw te componeren ontstaan er geheel nieuwe organismen.

Ik volgde mijn studie tekenen en vrije schilderkunst en behaalde mijn diploma tot autonoom beeldend kunstenaar
aan de Constantijn Huygens Academie voor Beeldende Kunst in Kampen.
Jaren later studeerde ik nogmaals aan Artez Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in Zwolle, waar ik mijn diploma behaalde in ruimtelijke vormgeving en kunsteducatie.

My work consists of collages, paintings and drawings of an imaginary organic world.
With my nose on the ground, I photograph small plants, fungi and critters.
I regularly look at the smallest nature through a microscope. I also collect visual material from existing literature and old encyclopedias.
Hereby I investigate the relationship between shape and texture in different life forms. Recomposing visual material creates entirely new organisms.

I studied drawing and free painting and obtained my diploma as an autonomous visual artist at the Constantijn Huygens Academy of Visual Arts in Kampen.
Years later I studied again at Artez School of the Arts in Zwolle, where I obtained my diploma in spatial design and art education.
