AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This work is about life going on, even when you still doubt.
You see a figure looking outward. Inside it’s dark and quiet. Outside it’s light, music, and movement. Life happens there. But he is still inside. He looks, but he hasn’t stepped outside yet.
There are texts on the painting such as:
I watched life! Here, things happen.
They kept going
“Maybe tomorrow”
“Still breathing tomorrow”
I wasn’t ready yet
It looked so easy from here
These words show how, at times, we look at life without really taking part. We wait, postpone, and think that there will always be a tomorrow. But in the meantime, everything keeps going.
The work is about fear, doubt, and the moment when you decide to actually live. About stepping out of your safe place and choosing the present.
The dark background and rough lines give the piece depth and emotion. The yellow light and the colors outside convey hope and energy. The contrast makes it powerful and recognizable.
Because of its size, this is a real eye-catcher in a modern or industrial interior. It brings not only color and character, but also a story that lingers.

Seller's Story
Hamelink combines contemporary themes with influences from the past and often works in an energetic, expressive style. He draws inspiration from the tradition of artists such as Herman Brood, who was known for his raw, spontaneous approach, as well as Riek van Iersel, who sought a powerful emotional expression in his work.
Hamelink is best known for his paintings and drawings, in which he pushes the boundaries of traditional painting and tackles themes such as identity, culture and social issues. His work can be characterised by a direct, unpolished approach to the medium, which exudes a certain spontaneity and energy. Like Brood and Van Iersel, Hamelink plays with the tension between personal experience and the broader social context, often with a focus on contemporary society.
His style is often raw, unfiltered and full of expression, using powerful colours and dynamic shapes that enhance the urgency of his themes. Bart Hamelink seems to bridge the gap between traditional expressive movements and contemporary art with his work, while at the same time critically reflecting on modern times.
