| "Once"
is about time. It's one work, consisting out of 12 paintings,
that are artistically self-sufficient, but in connection
with one another (like cells in a body). It's a construction,
research about the relationship between the sun and the
earth, the fluctuation of light and warmth throughout
the day. I picked 12 moments, with sunrise, sunset, midday
and midnight as reference points. I tried to grasp these
moments by depicting atmosphere |
| At
sunrise, the light comes - but only arount 2 o'clock in
the afternoon, when the sun is on it's way down again,
warmth is on its peak. When the sun sets, the warmth of
the day is not immediately gone. This interval can be
deliciously experienced in the work with colour processes. |
| oThe
original series was based on a series of photographs,
taken from a lamppost that stands on the edge of a Dutch
village - pictures were taken in 360 degrees, to follow
the sun on her way. Later, when the colour processes became
clear, other pictures came in (to fit the process). This
to reflect on our mobility - if you have a car, you can
go to the see to watch the sun set, and be back in the
city an hour later. |

| These
works are seperately sold, but to keep the series as a
whole, I replace the sold pictures by newly painted ones.
(up to 25 copies each). I would like the works
to evolve, replacements are never exactly the same - only
the colour process remains the same. The works shown here
are now for sale (235 euro for one painting, including
taxes), with a discount when ordering 2 or more. |
